Comment 9 for bug 1947424

OK, so it DOESN'T work for me when using a custom configfile. Putting "export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8" into that custom config file and starting the pbuilder build results in the same "LC_ALL=C" still being set, although other LC_* env vars are now set to "C.UTF-8". So although it might be INTENDED to work by using the custom configfile, I'm still seeing LC_ALL=C regardless.

Also, the point is not that a "policy-conforming" package doesn't build, it's that in the real world various real builds fail due the incorrect locale. So in a "perfect" world then perhaps it wouldn't matter that pbuilder is using a DIFFERENT locale than all official sbuild Debian and Ubuntu builds. But in the actual real world it does matter, and therefore I still consider it a serious bug and limitation.

In any case, thank you all for your feedback, and have a nice day!
