That is the = way it works with most other environment variables (like HOME, for example). With the current patch, LANG is essentially working the other way around. A= ll other environment variables which are set by doas get their value from the target user, unless specified otherwise in doas.conf (keepenv/setenv). I wo= uld expect LANG to work in the same manner. To give a few use-cases where you want the target user's language: * You regularly have to work with documents/data in different languages, and use separate accounts and doas to do so. * You're developing (or troubleshooting) applications in other languages. * You're using FreeBSD as a desktop, and run heavy and/or risky (security-w= ise) applications as a seperate user. You want most of your desktop to use en_US, but for some applications you prefer your native language (this might be a = text editors/word processors, mail clients, maybe a web browser). While I'll adm= it I'm making this up (not the separate user accounts), I can imagine some cas= es where this might make sense. * A variation of the previous scenario. You run some software under differe= nt accounts (as a policy), but default to using your native language. However,= the localization of certain programs is really bad, and you prefer to use a loc= ale based on English for those. * Last but not least: in most cases the calling and target user will probab= ly use the same language anyway. If they differ, it's probably for a reason. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
