Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Anthony Baxter (anthonybaxter) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: test_locale and en_US Initial Comment: Is it worth making test_locale try first "en_US", then "C", as locale names? None of the systems I've tried have "en_US" as a valid locale. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Anthony Baxter (anthonybaxter) Date: 2005-05-07 23:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=29957 I just submitted a patch http://www.python.org/sf/1197218 that makes test_locale try each of en_US.UTF-8, en_US.US-ASCII and en_US in turn. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Alex Martelli (aleax) Date: 2003-11-03 06:56 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=60314 hmmm -- my Linux Mandrake 9.1 does succeed happily with en_US (and on Windows we already use 'en' instead). What systems have you tried, Anthony? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v.

However, in the C locale, there is no grouping. Most systems should have an English locale - it might have a different name, though. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=815668&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
