Status for genext2fs/1.5.0-3

Patch Description Author Forwarded Bugs Origin Last update
0001-Enable-system-locale-change-from-the-standard-C-to-s.patch [PATCH] Enable system locale - change from the standard (C) to system locale.

This allows libarchive (in case it is activated) to handle filenames.
We only change LC_CTYPE since libarchive only needs the charset set.
We don't use LC_ALL because it causes problems on some systems.
We restore the original LC_CTYPE after extraction to avoid side effects.
We use uselocale instead of setlocale to avoid setting LC_CTYPE globally.
See on libarchive Website for a more complete description of the issue:
