I have tested both MySQL 4.0.15 on WinXP and the default MySQL which comes with Fedora Core 1, and neither could handle Persian sorting correctly. They both seemed to start sorting from letter "FEH" to "YEH" and then picking up "CHEH", "ZHEH", "GEH" and "PEH", and then starting from "ALEF" to "GHEIN". It's possible that the Windows version has not been compiled with glibc, but the Linux version is most likely compiled with glibc, I think. Do I need to compile MySQL manually? If so, is any particular version of glibc required, or do I need to specify any particular compilation options?
