The documentation for localflavor states that:
{{{
Inside that package, country- or culture-specific code is organized into
subpackages, named using ISO 3166 country codes.
}}}
However, the ISO 3166 code for the United Kingdom is actually GB. Thus,
anything that uses ISO 3166 codes to store countries (such as django-
countries) will be unable to automatically get the correct localflavor
information.
Since changing this would break existing code, perhaps there could be
another gb module that just shadows the uk module.
For instance, in gb/forms.py, we might have:
{{{
from django.contrib.localflavor import uk
GBPostcodeField = uk.UKPostcodeField
GBCountySelect = uk.UKCountySelect
GBNationSelect = uk.UKNationSelect
}}}
This means that all is needed is this file, and any changes to the uk one
will also apply to gb.
