orrery fails to start when locale set

[Davide]

If I try to start orrery from shr-u feeds with locale set to gl_ES.UTF-8 or es_ES.UTF-8, I get the following error:

root@om-gta02 ~ $ opkg install orrery
Installing orrery (2.7-r0.4) to root...

When locale is set to C, orrery starts perfectly:

root@om-gta02 ~ $ export LC_ALL=C
root@om-gta02 ~ $ locale
LANG=gl_ES.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"

LC_TELEPHONE="C"
LC_MEASUREMENT="C"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="C"
LC_ALL=C
root@om-gta02 ~ $ orrery
root@om-gta02 ~ $

This sounds like an upstream issue, have you tried contacting them?

That's probably the reason why orrery is started through orrery.sh

$ more /usr/bin/orrery.sh
#!/bin/sh

unset LC_ALL
unset LANG
/usr/bin/orrery -d /usr/share/orrery

No, mine (SHR-u feeds one) is not started from orrery.sh:

root@om-gta02 ~ $ more /usr/bin/orrery.sh
more: /usr/bin/orrery.sh: No such file or directory

Which one are you using?

I think they are aware of the problem, but it's supossed to be solved on 2.7. Conversation on  http://www.opkg.org/package_9.html

If I start on Terminal, get "Wrong number (1) of numbers found on line 1 of /media/card/orrery/orbitalElements/mercury/Elements"

Frank - If you send your email address to orrery.moko@gmail.com, I could send you a version which might solve the problems you mention above. I'd like to get to the root of the problem you are reporting.

The problem Frank mentioned above is fixed in version 2.7

The problem with orrery crashing when started through illume icon is still there. orrery 2.7 works well, if you start it from ssh. The error is still "Wrong number (1) of numbers found on line 1 of /media/card/orrery/orbitalElements/mercury/Elements"

I can't reach  http://projects.openmoko.org/projects/orrery/, might be there is more information on project page...

Oops, then I added the wrapper script myself (and forgot about it) ;-)
