Thank you! Though it will be hard to comment, as it is my possibly mistaken
impression that LC_COLLATE needs some support in libc? (The way to check the
database would be to see whether strcoll gives a different sort order under
a different locale...) I grabed an LC_COLLATE file out of PR 11546, but
got for example from perl:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LC_ALL = (unset),
LC_CTYPE = "de_DE.ISO8859-1",
LC_COLLATE = "de_DE.ISO8859-1",
LANG = (unset)
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
% ls -l /usr/share/locale/de_DE.ISO8859-1
total 10
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 272 Jan 20 16:43 LC_COLLATE < from PR 11546
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3240 Jan 18 12:53 LC_CTYPE < standard one
Cheers,
