Bug ID: 470695
Summary: Invalid Plasma<->GLibc locale matching heuristic
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.27.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_regionandlang
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: jek...@gmail.com
CC: hanyo...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
The Region and Language KCM has a strange heuristic for mapping Plasma language
to GLibc locale in the KCMRegionAndLang::constructGlibcLocaleMap(). This
algorithm can select almost unused locale variant instead of expected one. For
example, it selects a be_BY@latin locale for Belarusian language instead of
pure be_BY.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run Region and Language KCM
2. Select a Belarusian ("беларуская") language
3. Apply changes
4. Check the ~/.config/plasma-localerc for LANG variable
OBSERVED RESULT
LANG=be_BY.UTF-8@latin
EXPECTED RESULT
LANG=be_BY.UTF-8
