`<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=us-ascii"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;">A repeating problem has been with the ISO/USB "Caiman" installer barfing out upon selecting a timezone in Europe, Asia, or Africa. All of these have timezones that use non-ASCII characters in one of their zone names.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I've finally (and sorry for the delay) worked out a solution: Have the installer run with LANG=en_US.UTF-8, so it can handle the characters. The problem is, caiman's display doesn't cope with it very well, and draws letters where there used to be line/drawing characters.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So my quick question to you all: for r151018 (and backporting), do you prefer a nicer-looking installer that craps out if you select Africa, Europe, or Asia? Or do you prefer a sketchier-looking one that works for all timezones out of the box? I'm cutting the last 017 bloody with this, so you can try it out yourself when it shows up.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Some people set their timezones in /etc/default/init AFTER installation, so I'm asking, instead of just making the decision. I'm attaching a screenshot of the en_US.UTF-8 one. Note the letter q where there should be a left-to-right bar:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><img height="455" width="719" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" apple-inline="yes" id="A25A886B-6421-405B-9EB9-8E5C586D7D01" src="cid:AF9F6ABB-EFC1-4B86-A6DC-5A5480B3C942" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Dan</div><div class=""><br class=""></div></body></html>`
