And what do you think should a developer do without any information, but a link to a russian forum thread, he most likely cannot read at all? I'm sorry... Simple - new glibc -s, glibc-2.3.4.2005* generate not readable LC_MESSAGES for russian (locales: ru_RU.koi8r, ru_RU.utf8, ru_RU.cp1251). Part of programms after full installation read correct koi8r, part - no. Example: licq - not correct, xterm - correct, eclipse-sdk - not, from firefox-bin - not correct, BARDAK, CHAOS! Installation portage from installation CD - all work correctly, but all old... echo "=sys-libs/glibc-2.3.4.20050125">>/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask solve this problem Hi, For some time also have problems with locales (bg_BG). Seems it all was due to the fact that glibc-2.3.4-20050125 doesn't compile *any* custom locales at all. Till now always compiled glibc without userlocales USE-flag, too lazy ;) After checking quite some things just today saw that i only have POSIX & C locales (locale -a) available. Also remeber i never saw (looking casually) glibc compiling any locales at all. Now trying previous version - 20041102, will report any result. PS: maybe this bug should be reopened if valid. Thanks Rumen Hi again, Can confirm that glibc-20050125 doesn't make any locales at all, 20041102 does. Binary sizes compared to 20041102 are 10MB to ~17MB with quite equal USE-flags. Saw there is a new (masked) 20050125-r1 maybe it'll fix this issue too. Thanks Rumen Ugu-u-u... what about glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1 ? On 64-bit she incorrectly generates locales (or at all does not generate as here write) A-a-a! Cunningly. I do not know, r1 it has been disguised from the very beginning. I did not put experiences. It seems to be a similar problem to Bug 82106 , on ~x86. I guess there is a file locale-archive in /usr/lib/locale, but no subdirectories with the LC_-files, as it should be. Both 2005-versions of glibc (glibc-2.3.4.20050125 and glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1) have this problem. This seems to be a duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 82106 *** |
