Description Telsa Gwynne 2001-11-15 09:09:24 UTC
As per summary: locale_config has no documentation, whether a man
page, a piece in /usr/share/doc/locale_config/, info or on-screen
help.

[hobbit@pwca hobbit]$ rpm -q locale_config
locale_config-0.3.2-1

No docs-like files are listed in rpm -ql

Expected Results:

Docs :) 

At the very least, "select system locale" in the dialogue box might
mention "for all users" (if that's what it does: I'm still not sure, 
but the "must be root to run" suggests so to me)

Given other bugs (eg bug #17204) it is probably worth making it very
clear that it will affect sort order. And perhaps pointing to other 
more general "what locale is all about" docs which include all the
different variables.

Changing product in hopes that the right component will show up.

Comment 2 Owen Taylor 2002-08-09 18:02:05 UTC
Locale_config has been replaced by redhat-config-language, which also
appears to have no docs at the current time.

Comment 3 Brent Fox 2002-08-13 03:07:23 UTC
No time for this release.  Deferring.
