When using R on my Gentoo machine, whether in interactive or in batch |
| 2 |
mode, calling `help()' causes the following error: |
| 3 |
Error in strsplit(txt, "\n", fixed = TRUE) : |
| 4 |
'split' string 1 is invalid UTF-8 |
| 5 |
When in interactive mode, typing any function with an opening bracket |
| 6 |
(eg. `help(') and then pressing tab (intending to get a command |
| 7 |
completion) causes the same error. |

Above is the situation in the default locale on my machine, |
| 10 |
`en_GB.UTF-8'; and with LANG=C, this does not happen. |

My Gentoo system is updated daily with global ~amd64 keyword in use. |
| 13 |
Available locales as following: |
| 14 |
C, en_GB.UTF-8, POSIX |
| 15 |
USE flags of dev-lang/R (version: 2.13.1) as following: |
| 16 |
X bash-completion cairo jpeg nls openmp perl png readline -doc -java |
| 17 |
-lapack -minimal -profile -static-libs -tk |
