Re: [Sugar-devel] [Dextrose] Dextrose 3 patches report
2011/12/5 Chris Leonard cjlhomeaddr...@gmail.com: 2011/12/5 Rubén Rodríguez ru...@gnu.org: I will be sure to communicate to this list (and especially directly to Bernie) as that work moves forward, especially once we get an upstream commit of the glibc locales. Please ping me too if you modify the locale definitions, as we don't get them from glibc for TOAST. Yes, of course. I appreciate Dextrose and Trisquel / TOAST being willing to hand manage the draft locales for now as we refine them. I will be sure to broadcast to this list and narrow-cast to those working on the Puno image when the glibc locales are upstreamed. The main reason for not including in SL Sugar at this point is that we have encountered issues with builds of Activities for langs without a glibc locale and there is no urgent need for SL and OLPC to manage a local glibc file at the moment, I think waiting for the upstreaming makes sense for them. Of course, if anyone wants the draft locales, I would be happy to share them. Plus one. A core vision of Dextrose is to serve as a testing platform for things which are requested or required by individual deployments. Then after a period of refinement they can be pushed upstream if they are valuable and useful. david cjl ___ Dextrose mailing list dextr...@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/dextrose ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

Yes, Walter has more correctly characterized the issue of missing upstream glibc locales that was encountered. Pure speculation on my part, but I suspect that the fix for this will not only require a push to the glibc upstream, but a pull of those new locales by Fedora before the errors go away for Fedora packaging Such is the challenge of being on the leading edge of new languages in GNU/Linux distros, but it is well worth it. It also emphasizes my desire to have a truly polished locale submitted on the first go, as waiting for patches to trickle down from Gnome into distros could introduce more variability and frustration than needed. cjl Sugar Labs Translation Team Coordinator ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
