Date: Wed, 15 Feb 2023 10:18:08 -0800

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

If the environment variable LC_ALL is set to 'en_US.utf8', three coding 
system related tests fail in bleeding-edge Emacs (commit 
51e3f91f50da43f18706410bf6cd096684379daa) when run on Ubuntu 22.10 with 
current patches. The problem goes away if LC_ALL is set to 'C', so this 
most likely has something to do with how Emacs reacts to the current locale.

Attached is the compressed output of 'make -j12 bootstrap && make -j12 
check'.

Thanks, the mule-tests.el failure should now be fixed (on the emacs-29
branch).

The other two failures seem both to be the same issue with unescaped
literals:

    (ert-test-failed
     ((should
       (equal
	(lread-tests--last-message)
	(concat ... "unescaped character literals " "`?\"', `?(', `?)', `?;', `?[', `?]' detected, " "`?\\\"', `?\\(', `?\\)', `?\\;', `?\\[', `?\\]' " "expected!")))
      :form
      (equal "Loading ‘/tmp/emacs-test-hXFUcu-lread’: unescaped character literals ‘?\"’, ‘?(’, ‘?)’, ‘?;’, ‘?[’, ‘?]’ detected, ‘?\\\"’, ‘?\\(’, ‘?\\)’, ‘?\\;’, ‘?\\[’, ‘?\\]’ expected!" "Loading ‘/tmp/emacs-test-hXFUcu-lread’: unescaped character literals `?\"', `?(', `?)', `?;', `?[', `?]' detected, `?\\\"', `?\\(', `?\\)', `?\\;', `?\\[', `?\\]' expected!")
      :value nil :explanation
      (array-elt 69
		 (different-atoms
		  (8216 "#x2018" "?‘")
		  (96 "#x60" "?`")))))
   FAILED  48/49  lread-tests--unescaped-char-literals (0.000455 sec) at src/lread-tests.el:133

Mattias, any ideas?

These looks like consequences from fixing a couple of diagnostics text styling bugs some time ago. Remedies have now been pushed (07a76a06f9). Thank you for bringing this to my attention!

I'm therefore closing this bug report.
