System: NetBSD hrududu.wongs.net 1.5 NetBSD 1.5 (GENERIC) #1: Sun Nov 19 21:42:11 MET 2000 fvdl@sushi:/work/trees/netbsd-1-5/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386


>Description:
The units program cannot convert from (or to) guilders because there
is a typo in /usr/share/misc/units.lib. Currently the file contains
these lines:

    netherlandguilder		.52 $
    guilder			netherlandsguilder
    hollandguilder		netherlandsguilder

Since netherlandsguilder (notice the 's') is not defined, the units
program is unable to convert guilders.


>How-To-Repeat:

    bash-2.04$ units
    503 units, 41 prefixes

    You have: guilders
    unknown unit 'netherlandsguilder'
    You have: dollars
    You want: guilders
    unknown unit 'netherlandsguilder'
    You want: ^C

>Fix:

Just add the 's' in "netherlandguilder". So the line in units.lib
should read:

netherlandsguilder	.52 $
