  Description     : Locale functions required by libphonenumber-for-php

A library providing up to date CLDR. Primarily as a requirement of
libphonenumber-for-php.

This was created because libphonenumber-for-php required the intl extension to
use the Geo Coder. The extension is not installed by default, and can be a
hurdle for users. It also relies on the CLDR data provided by the Operating
System, which is quite often out of date.



This package is needed by php-giggsey-libphonenumber

Ideally it would integrate the php/pear team like the other composer
packages.

Sponsor needed.
