there's nothing to fix in libc afaict.

and this shouldn't be necessary, just use the proper locale
(ru_UA.UTF-8).  Why do you think more is needed?

Cheers,
Julien

ok

so in order to solve #608045 and #607138 we need one of two things:
1. fix package "libc-bin" - true way in your opinion (please reopen
#608045 and assign both #608045 and #607138 to package "libc-bin")
2. add alias for ru_UA.utf8 in package "libx11-data" - yet another
workaround (see output of "grep utf8
/usr/share/X11/locale/locale.alias")

That doesn't make it a valid locale.

invalid locale name is taken from the program "locale" (package
"libc-bin"):

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
  en_US.UTF-8... done
  ru_UA.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
$ grep -Ev '^(#|$)' /etc/locale.gen
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
ru_UA.UTF-8 UTF-8
$ locale -a | grep utf
en_US.utf8
ru_UA.utf8
$ dpkg -S $(which locale)
libc-bin: /usr/bin/locale

Hi,

Dmitry Kolesnikov  (23/10/2011):

that was not inconsiderate:

kibi@bowmore:~/debian-x/lib/libx11.git$ git grep ru_UA|grep -i utf
nls/compose.dir.pre:en_US.UTF-8/Compose:ru_UA.UTF-8
nls/locale.dir.pre:en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE:  ru_UA.UTF-8

I'm cc-ing the bug and its submitter for reference.

So, as Julien said: stop using an invalid locale name.

Mraw,
KiBi.
