Fedora's glibc has an additional issue with the Turkish 'I' that can be reproduced by the simple C program in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=726536 I disabled the test specifically on Fedora because it a) seems to be the only Linux buildbot where this test fails and b) this does not seem like a Python issue to me. Since you say that the fix for issue #1813 might not be right, do you think that the fix should work around this glibc issue? > If there are any helpful tests I can run on Gentoo, please let me know. Yes, you could run the small test program. If you get the same results as on Fedora, then I wonder why the Gentoo buildbots are green. Do they have tr_TR and tr_TR.iso88599 installed?
