Description Daniela Plascencia 2017-10-03 16:27:12 UTC 
There's a temporal workaround in scripts/patchtest for the setting the guest machine LOCALE (en_US.UTF-8). We must provide an adequate solution for it.
Comment 1 Daniela Plascencia 2017-11-30 20:42:42 UTC 
The patchtest initscript and the core-image-patchtest recipe were refactor, thus this workaround is now inside core-image-patchtest.bb. Due to time constraints and as it is not an urgent matter, I'm moving it to Future.

Comment 2 Trevor Gamblin 2023-10-05 15:01:34 UTC 
This is no longer relevant with the recent Patchtest refactor. The only purpose of the image is to run the patchtest suite against patch files - everything else is done outside the image. Marking as obsolete.
