I am having a lot of trouble building locales, or anything that uses them. My 
system is a recent Mandrake 8.0 distro install, which I'm upgrading with 
(pretty much all) cooker modules. When I try to compile locales-2.3.1.1, I 
get error messages like:

        ...
sv_SE:2158: symbol `S' not in charmap
sv_SE:2158: symbol `S' not in repertoire map
sv_SE:2158: LC_TIME: unknown character in field `t_fmt'
        ...

When I look at one of the unknown character lines, I see something like:

address    "Sankt J<U00F8>rgens Alle 8, DK-1615 K<U00F8>benhavn V, Danmark"

So, I guess the <U00F8> is not being recognized... by whom?
Shouldn't this be expressed in a dependency? esp. for the locales module?

I do have glibc-2.2.3-2mdk rebuilt from cooker SRPM and installed. There are 
no other stated dependencies but I'm obviously missing something important!? 
The locales seem to be pretty important to (rebuilding?) other modules, too.

Any help appreciated.
