- <para>Sometimes it is possible to fix this by removing the charmap part of
the
- locale specification, as long as that does not change the character map that
- Glibc associates with the locale (this can be checked by running the

+ <para>Here Xlib expects that the character map will be listed in uppercase
+ notation with canonical dashes. For instance, "ISO-8859-1" rather than
+ "iso88591". It is sometimes possible to fix this by removing the charmap part
+ of the locale specification, as long as that does not change the character

<para>Other packages can also function incorrectly (but may not necessarily
display any error messages) if the locale name does not meet their
expectations.
