Bug#282715: locale.alias contents do not match with typical LANG or LC_* values



Package: xlibs-data
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8

Hi:

I have been installing Sarge, and decided to go full utf8. But when
launching xterms I was getting errors about the locales. After some
hunting I found that my env vars had values that C lib likes (for
example en_GB.utf8) but Xlib does not (it wants things like
en_US.UTF-8).

Some more inspection let me found that adding some extra lines to
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/locale.alias made it stop complaining. It
would be nice if this file included the values that you can get from
locale -a (the utf8 ones mapped to the UTF-8 that X has).

Thanks.
