Re: http://www.debian.org/mirrors/official_sponsors
Hi!
Doh - silly me, just sent it to Josip personally....
Ben, I Cc:ed you for I think this might be a libc6 bug - please tell me
if I should submit a bugreport about this or if I am interpreting it
wrong...

Yes, I checked that now:
-D CUR_LANG=German
-D CUR_ISO_LANG=de
-D CHARSET=iso-8859-1
Maybe something else is needed? How is that used? I'll try to dig
that....
Uhm - I found maybe where the proble might be:
alfie@asgard:~/tmp/foo$ LC_COLLATE=C ls
Niederlande Polen Österreich
alfie@asgard:~/tmp/foo$ LC_COLLATE=de ls
Niederlande Polen Österreich
alfie@asgard:~/tmp/foo$ LC_COLLATE=de_DE ls
Niederlande Österreich Polen
It might be needed for the correct sorting that we use de_DE instead of
simply de somewhere. Or do you think this might be a bug in the libc6?
Ben, I'm not that familar with the libc6 code and don't know if that is
wanted behavior - but I guess this might be a bug... Please share your
opinion on this with us...

Simply CUR_ISO_LANG for LC_COLLATE seem to be too less for the sorting
here correctly *hmm*
Would be great if someone tells me that I should file a bugreport
against locales (or libc6) about that....

I'm always for reducing duplicates.
So long,
