commit 16820f7f107201a31f7bdb957b86d7fadf8c2f29 (HEAD -> sid)
Author: Niv Sardi <xa...@debian.org>
Date:   Thu Mar 22 12:22:05 2018 -0300

change LC_PAPER to en_US in es_BO local

i18n defaults to A4 paper, that class of paper is imposible to find
in Bolivia,
the de-facto standard is 'letter' or en_US 279x216

Bug#880675: locales: LC_PAPER is incorrect for es_BO

[Sylvain Lesage]

Package: locales
Version: 2.24-17
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n newcomer

Dear Maintainer,

in Bolivia, nobody uses the A4 format, it's impossible to buy this kind of 
paper. The default paper size is "letter", and everybody uses it.
Meanwhile, the es_BO configuration indicates the A4 format as default. It 
should be changed to letter.

In the /usr/share/i18n/locales/es_BO file, instead of

```
LC_PAPER
copy "i18n"
END LC_PAPER
```

I think we should have:

```
LC_PAPER
height   279
width216
END LC_PAPER
```
