Bug#607138: locales: broken cyrillic in xterm with ru_UA.utf8 locale

It is more likely a X11 locales issue. I still don't understand why gdm defines ru_UA.utf8 and why libx11-data doesn't provide an alias contrary to other locales. I am therefore reassigning this bug to both these packages. As far as I can understand gdm defines locale during login process accordingly to the language chosen by user on the login screen. Absence of proper alias was the main problem I think. Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Maybe you are talking about gdm3 from experimental. And this one gets locale information from accountsservice, which in turn extracts it directly from the locale data (there is nothing hardcoding foo_BAR.utf8 instead of foo_BAR.UTF-8, it’s the information as provided by locales).

Cheers, When I faced this problem my system was squeeze (testing). After some investigation I understood that it was gdm who set ru_UA.utf8 locale instead of orthodox ru_UA.UTF-8, so there were two ways to solve the issue - set proper alias, or set UTF-8 locale after the gdm. I choose to put a string in my ~./profile and it is still there and it works. I think that it's a better solution than putting proper alias to the locale.alias file because X.org updates seem to rewrite it. But if the gdm now sets locale in format foo_bar.UTF-8 or guys from X.org have set alias for ru_UA.utf then there's no problem. And unfortunately I find neither locale alias nor correct locale from gdm, at least on my system (I use mix of squeeze/wheezy). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
