Description Carlos O'Donell 2019-05-02 16:02:09 UTC
Description of problem:
1. dnf install  glibc-all-langpacks 
2. locale -a|grep mr
   mr_IN
   mr_IN.utf8

1. dnf remove glibc-all-langpacks, dnf install glibc-langpack-mr
   locale -a|grep mr
   mr_IN

  Missing mr_IN.utf

I am not sure about usage of mr_IN.utf8, but this is more issue from backward compatibility side.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install glibc-langpack-mr
2. locale -a|grep mr

Actual results:
List only 
- mr_IN

Expected results:
As a backward compatibility, It should list both
mr_IN
mr_IN.alias

To be clear we should either have:

(a) Both mr_IN and mr_IN.utf8 with locale-archive and without.

or

(b) Only mr_IN with locale-archive adn without.

The real solution here is to create the symlinks in /usr/lib/locale that match exactly what the locale-archive is displaying.
