Bug#770845: [libinline-java-perl] FTBFS: Assumes a decimal point during the tests

[Peter Pentchev]

Source: libinline-java-perl
Severity: serious
Tags: patch

The test suite of the libinline-java-perl package seems to assume
that the decimal point separator is a dot.  This fails if the package
is built with e.g. LANG=bg_BG.UTF-8 and without an appropriate
LC_NUMERIC setting.

Attached is a patch that runs the test suite with LC_NUMERIC=C.
If there are no objections, I intend to commit it to the pkg-perl
Git repository later today.

G'luck,
Peter
