Package: locales
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-15
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
Some of the locale aliases in /etc/locale.alias map names to unsupported
locales. Namely, "eucJP" and "eucKR" aren't spelled correctly per
/usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED, and the "SJIS" codeset isn't supported at all.
I'm attaching two files:
* A Python script I wrote that found this problem.
* A patch to correct the problem. I corrected all but one problem; I had
to drop the alias for "japanese.sjis", as adding support for the SJIS
character set to glibc is beyond my ability, and I don't even know if
that's a desirable solution.
Thanks for looking into this.

Closing this bug because the maintainer A) didn't understand what I was
getting at and B) doesn't see a problem anyway.
