*Localization of CVSTrac*

All the text generated by CVSTrac is American English.  But dates can
be displayed in the local language and format.
To show dates in the local language, do this:

*: Create bash script to run CVSTrac in required locale.
   Example : _uk-cvstrac_

       #!/bin/bash
       LANG=uk_UA.KOI8-U /usr/local/bin/cvstrac $*

*: Replace "cvstrac" in your scripts by name of your new script
   (uk-cvstrac, in my case).

You can set LANG environment variable in xinet.d configuration (see "man xinetd.conf" for details):

 env LANG=uk_UA.KOI8-U

or in .htaccess (in case of CGI script):

  <IfModule mod_env.c>
  SetEnv LANG uk_UA.KOI8-U
  </IfModule>


If you want to run a localized CVSTrac in chroot environment
(such as described in ChrootJailForCvstrac),
use the following command to find all files required by the
cvstrac binary.

   strace -o logfile -e trace=file cvstrac ...

Then "logfile" will list file operations that cvstrac tried, whether
they succeeded or not.
