XILINX: verilog is not supported as a language, using usenglish

This should probably go in to the funny error messages folder:

This is on the Latest Fedora (11) release, x86_64.

Anybody knows where this error is coming from ? Didn't have that
on previous Fedora releases ...

Thanks,

A message like this is coming from a language localization routine.

It looks like ChipScope core generator is being called from within EDK
and somehow verilog was passed as the local language selection instead
of an accepted value.

Hi Ed,

thanks for your reply. I investigated it a bit further.

If I run

"coregen -b /home/rudi/reference_designs/ml507_satah/implementation/
chipscope_icon_0_wrapper"

from the terminal, it completes without an error.

In my environment, I have a variable "LANGUAGE" that is
set to an empty string. If I unset it, before starting xps,
everything completes without an error.

I did a search for that, and it appears to have been a
minor bug in the xilinx tools since about ISE 7.

Best Regards,
luudee
