Public bug reported:
there are 4 I's in Turkish alphabet
i (small I with dot)
İ (capital I with dot, uppercase of the above)
ı (small dotless I)
I (capital dotless I, uppercase of the above)
so, unlike english, 'ı'.upper = 'I' and 'i'.upper() = 'İ'
the following python code gives wrong output on my english-installed ubuntu
11.04
# coding=utf-8
from locale import getlocale, setlocale, getdefaultlocale, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'tr_TR.UTF-8')
print 'iI'.swapcase()
print 'iıabc'.upper()
the output is:
iI
iıABC
It is like (ıiIİ) are not uppercased/caseswapped at all.
Note that I do have tr_TR.utf8 in locale -a 's output
I have installed tr_TR.utf8 with
sudo locale-gen --archive tr_TR.UTF-8
