Please execute this line of code:
$ python -c 'import locale;print locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")'


Comment 3 Harald Hoyer 2005-06-15 08:35:47 UTC
$ LANG=en_EN python -c 'import locale;print locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in ?

hmmm en_EN does not seem to be a supported locale setting... did you mean:
en_GB ??? :)

$ ls -d /usr/lib/locale/en_??
/usr/lib/locale/en_AU  /usr/lib/locale/en_HK  /usr/lib/locale/en_SG
/usr/lib/locale/en_BW  /usr/lib/locale/en_IE  /usr/lib/locale/en_US
/usr/lib/locale/en_CA  /usr/lib/locale/en_IN  /usr/lib/locale/en_ZA
/usr/lib/locale/en_DK  /usr/lib/locale/en_NZ  /usr/lib/locale/en_ZW
/usr/lib/locale/en_GB  /usr/lib/locale/en_PH



Comment 4 Luis Correia 2005-06-15 08:43:43 UTC
Ok, it 'may' not be supported, but this setting worked without problems with
FedoraCore3.

Has this changed?

Comment 5 Luis Correia 2005-06-15 09:30:04 UTC
Please restore the en_EN locale.

It may be considered as 'international English', the one I would use here in
Portugal.

Neither British or American and should be the default locale if none is specified.
