Oddly enough, we aren't idiots: this was deliberate. The release manager was perfectly aware that hppa was out of sync. However, a huge amount of other stuff was waiting for glibc in testing, and it really wasn't practical to wait for hppa any longer. If we get a fixed hppa glibc 2.3.2 in time, which is being worked on, it'll go into testing. In the meantime, you can get an appropriate version of locales from, say, http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2003/07/01/debian/pool/main/g/glibc/. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
