I encountered another issue at <http://askubuntu.com/q/753516>: If you for instance pass the argument "en_IN.UTF-8", locale-gen currently sees it as unsupported, since the real name in SUPPORTED is just "en_IN". New locales tend to be UTF-8 only, and I think locale-gen should accept arguments with the codeset appended in these cases.
@Adam: I made a patch out of my proposed changes. If other glibc stuff is on its way in before final freeze, you may want to consider it together with them. Otherwise I think the proposed changes would motivate a separate upload. ** Patch added: "glibc_locale-gen.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1560577/+attachment/4624971/+files/glibc_locale-gen.patch ** Changed in: glibc (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => In Progress ** Changed in: glibc (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj) ** Tags added: patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1560577 Title: Confusing new locale-gen behavior To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1560577/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
