Description of problem: Cannot use locale Nepali. When i choose the locale to nepali(LC_np). It says locale not supported by Xlib. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedore core 2 test 2 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Glibc doesn't seem to include np in the locale definitions. You need a glibc locale definition for nepali and then possibly X and gdm definitions
Where does LC_np come from. This is wrong for multiple reasons: the language code "LC" does not exit, it's written in uppercase (instead of lowercase), "np" is in lowercase (instead of uppercase). If ne_NP would be used it works. At least in FC2, don't know when this locale was added.
Thanks Uli. Closing bug as 'NOTABUG' - incorrect locale usage.
This is not necessarily NOTABUG. Somebody has to check where this incorrect locale name comes from. If it is automatically listed in the gdm login screen something *is* wrong.
Ok, reopening. Manish) How are you selecting this locale?
Sorry for listing incorrect name. It is actually ne_NP. I choose that during the login. I didnt showed anything in nepali. Then I ran nautilus from the terminal. It said locale not supported by Xlib. thanks.
Do you have a directory /usr/lib/locale/ne_NP and files like LC_CTYPE in it? If yes, it's a matter of adding the voodoo in /usr/lib/X11/locale/locale.dir. Try adding a line like en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE: ne_NP.UTF-8 to that file.
hi, There is a directory /usr/lib/locale/ne_NP and there are also files like LC_CTYPE in it. I looked in the /usr/lib/X11/locale/locale.dir. I added the line en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE: ne_NP.UTF-8 Now the warning message problem is solved. But i cannot see characters in Nepali in Nautilus. Further, the characters are invisible. I cannot see menubar but the files and folders are visible (in English). I can only see Places menu(in english). Same problem with gedit. thanks.
hi, Same Problem with FC2. IS anybody working on that???
