Hi Brice,

Thank you for contacting me, even after 6 years or so :-) I have a
similar bug report [0] which was taken over and solved by 
Eddy Petrișor <eddy.petrisor at gmail.com>.

In the mean time the ro_RO migrated to UTF-8 [1] and the changes
propagated into glibc[2] in Sid.

You may close the bug [3] or merge it with the others [0] [4]. You
can change ISO-8859-2 with UTF-8 (without going through ISO-8859-16).
But also please remove the "rumanian" word...


Best regards,
        Ionel


P.S. For Eddy, did you made changes to the config files when migrating
ro_RO to UTF-8?
