You need to run something like: # localedef -d de_DE -f ISO-15 de_DE With the locale -a, it did list all of them (besides C and POSIX), right ? To get rid of the oldes glibc, do: emerge clean glibc

Q With the locale -a, it did list all of them (besides C and POSIX), right ? A wrong: # locale -a C POSIX # localedef -d en_GB -f ISO-15 en_GB localedef: invalid option -- d ...and emerge clean glibc gets rid of the newer one (~x86)

Bleh, ok, im on a CVS glibc here :/ Can you guys please do the following: edit glibc-2.3.1-r2 (or -r3 if you have ~x86 in ACCEPT_KEYWORDS), and change: --------------------- export LC_ALL="C" --------------------- in src_install() to: ------------------------------------ unset LANGUAGE LANG LC_ALL ------------------------------------ Also please add above line to first line of src_compile(). If you need me to attatch a sample ebuild, please let me know. Then just remerge glibc, and see if its fixed. I had some issues with timezones, etc in 2.3, and have it on local ebuild, but have not yet had the time to proberly look it over and commit ...
Did those changes to the -r3 ebuild and remerged: still the same.

See my 2002-12-13 change. Jakub Will dig up the patch and apply, Stefan
Created attachment 7203 [details, diff] glibc-2.3.1-locale.patch This is the promised patch diffed from the glibc CVS changeset which fixes this bug. I have tested this limited scope patch, locale -a now works as required. Shall I apply it? If so, shall I bump glibc? Stefan
Added patch to -r2. Please test and let us know. Thanks Stefan!
Re: Comment #9 Yes, -2 works now. Can you apply the patch to -3 as well?
Its done (apply to -r3). Closing this ...
