Nicolas Hainaux added the comment:
I understand that the statement "when python starts, it runs using the C
locale..." should not be correct anymore (and the doc should then be updated),
but in fact this statement is still true on the systems I tested; only, the
output of locale
Nicolas Hainaux added the comment:
Sorry, I did not realize that using the word "unset" was completely misleading:
I only meant "before any use of locale.setlocale() in python". So I'll rephrase
this all, and add details about the python versions and platforms in this
me
New submission from Nicolas Hainaux :
Expected behaviour:
When unset, the locale in use is `C` (as stated in python documentation) and
`locale.getlocale()` returns `(None, None)` on Linux with python2.7 or on
Windows with python2.7 and python 3.6 (at least):
$ python2
Python 2.7.15
