Hi, As I've previously described (without explicit file name I believe though) in my email to 185776, 372684, 369689, locales are hardcoded in /usr/lib/python2.4/locale.py into locale_alias dictionary. whatever is not there causes an error.
for the missing ones there is a note: ,--------------------------------------------------------------------------- | # NOTE: this mapping is incomplete. If your language is missing, please | # submit a bug report to Python bug manager, which you can find via: | # http://www.python.org/dev/ | # Make sure you include the missing language identifier and the suggested | # locale code. | # `--- what I wrote was ,-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | So my guess to fix all those bugs in fast way, missing locales | should be added to the list. It seems, although en_ZA was found | missing,it wasn't added and still missing for locale_alias, thus | showing that this solution might be highly ineffective and wrong way. | | Better way to fix this would be probably to add use of | /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED which has all those lang.encoding aliases | defined. That also would favor more orthogonal design, so that python's | internals don't duplicate (and thus ommit) some locales defined on the | system. /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED is highly Linux specific solution thus | might not be favored by python upstream, but might be very crucial for | i18n support of python among debian community. `--- hope this helps On Fri, 12 Jan 2007, Anders Breindahl wrote: > On 200701120034, Matthias Klose wrote: > > Where is this en_DK locale defined? the python locale information is > > generated from /usr/share/X11/locale/locale.alias, which doesn't have > > this definition. > How a locale is defined, I don't know.

I can't say if that is an error. -- .-. =------------------------------ /v\ ----------------------------= Keep in touch // \\ (yoh@|www.)onerussian.com Yaroslav Halchenko /( )\ ICQ#: 60653192 Linux User ^^-^^ [175555] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
