Description of problem:
Creating new locale (in my case cp1251) didn't fully complete 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. just run # localedef -c -i ru_RU -f CP-1251 ru_RU.CP1251
	

Actual Results:  /usr/share/i18n/locales/ru_RU:72: LC_MESSAGES: unknown
character in field `yesexpr'
/usr/share/i18n/locales/ru_RU:73: LC_MESSAGES: unknown character in field `noexpr'
/usr/share/i18n/locales/ru_RU:78: LC_MONETARY: unknown character in field
`currency_symbol'
/usr/share/i18n/locales/ru_RU:101: LC_TIME: unknown character in field `day'
/usr/share/i18n/locales/ru_RU:102: LC_TIME: unknown character in field `day'
[...skipped a lot of such messages...]
/usr/share/i18n/locales/ru_RU:137: LC_TIME: unknown character in field `abmon'
/usr/share/i18n/locales/ru_RU:138: LC_TIME: unknown character in field `abmon'
LC_MESSAGES: value for field `yesexpr' must not be an empty string
LC_MESSAGES: value for field `noexpr' must not be an empty string


Expected Results:  none error mesages I think

Additional info: Latest glibc was installed on my system, system is up2dated
regulary
Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2002-12-09 15:31:01 UTC 
That's not how the character map is called in /usr/share/i18n/charmaps.
Replace CP-1251 with CP1251 and it should work just fine.
