Daniel, in your report you have two screen shots, but I can't tell which window shows results from EDS and which one from PIM Manager.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66618 --- Comment #4 from Daniel Martin Buckley <daniel.m.buckley(a)intel.com&gt; --- According to http://demo.icu-project.org/icu-bin/locexp?_=zh&d_=en&x=col&c... 1. 鳥 2. 女性 is correct. Agreed! However the output of the SyncEvolution does not match this! I believe the issue is in SyncEvolution. Once sorted the correcet order should be this I believe index 0 = Brian index 1 = 單 ( dān) index 2 = Even index 3 = Evenly index 4 = 鳥 (niǎo) index 5 = 女 性 (nǚ xìng) In SyncEval it is not (index 4 & 5 are reversed) index 0 = Brian index 1 = 單 ( dān) index 2 = Even index 3 = Evenly index 4 = 女 性 (nǚ xìng) index 5 = 鳥 (niǎo) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66618 --- Comment #6 from Patrick Ohly <patrick.ohly(a)gmx.de&gt; --- I noticed that at least one of the contact files is invalid: BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 FN:Brian N:Brian;;;; TYPE=WORK,FAX:003538712310010 ORG:18-Brian END:VCARD A "TEL:" is missing in the TYPE=WORK,FAX:003538712310010 line. Several other files had extra white spaces at the end of a line or before/after the vcard. This has nothing to do with the actual problem, I just wonder how the files were created. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Attached the cleaned up vcards that I was using. Which version of SyncEvolution were you using? See "syncevolution --version". Was the locale set in the environment before starting syncevo-dbus-server? See "strings /proc/`pidof syncevo-dbus-server`/environ | grep zh_CN". Can you try to reproduce it exactly as above?

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66618 --- Comment #10 from Patrick Ohly <patrick.ohly(a)gmx.de&gt; --- The fist check should be for the environment of the running syncevo-dbus-server. If it doesn't get the right env variables when it starts, then it will not adapt to changes of those settings later on. Adding that feature is on my list, but wasn't part of the original plan (and delivery). If this issue here turns out to be caused by the lack of runtime adjustment to locale changes, then we can use it to track the feature request. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66618 --- Comment #12 from Patrick Ohly <patrick.ohly(a)gmx.de&gt; --- (In reply to comment #11) That doesn't quite answer the question. Even if nothing is set in /etc, the process might still get spawned with the right environment variables. To be absolutely sure, please run the "strings" command above. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66618 --- Comment #14 from Patrick Ohly <patrick.ohly(a)gmx.de&gt; --- (In reply to comment #13) That probably explains the problem. Can you double check that running with valid env variable makes the sorting work as expected? Kill the process above, then run it with DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS and LC_* variable set. You should also fix your system such that these env variables get set in the environment of all process before they start. For SyncEvolution and in particular with EDS you really want to avoid the situation where it starts with unset env variables, then changes at runtime to the real ones. In EDS, that can lead to rewriting the database twice (go to C locale, back to real one). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
