Bug#302111: Bug #302111: we need a XML and Perl specialist for that one
Bug #302111 suggests abandoning the use of the tabultated ISO-3166
file from iso-codes to build the list of countries.
The localechooser build script should rather use the
/usr/share/xml/iso-codes/iso_3166.xml file and extract countrycodes
and country names from it.
This needs a rewrite of the countrylist Perl script by someone who has
some basic knowledge of Perl and XML files handling with Perl.
I am *not* that person. Could someone jump in ?
This would allow the iso-codes package maintainer to abandon the
generation of iso_3166.tab, actually
