rpm5 tries to include langinfo.h, which seems to be installed within qnx itself.

it seems to be needed for nl_langinfo() and the constan CODESET.

any idea, where to find that header?

We don't have this either.  This is another XSI extension to
POSIX; however we (QNX) don't have any precedence for it
such as the prototype in the last case.  At first glance it
doesn't appear too difficult to implement nl_langinfo() as I
think most of the LC_TIME defines mentioned in langinfo.h
can map to currently implemented values in our libc.  The
bigger issue would be nl_types.h which POSIX says "may" be
brought in by langinfo.h but since it's a "may" we can
ignore that for now...

So to gauge interest, how many think nl_langinfo() would be
useful?  Do we want it?  Which packages are looking for it?

hi sean,

thank you for the information. it's not what i hoped to get, but a least i understand, that i did not make anything 
wrong. tht's okay.

it seems to be, that the application can life without that. but i have to check that with the devlopers.
