Description:
Can some one install locale for Python?
I can run the archivebot.py because locale.setlocale() doesn't support changes.
I'm interested to implement the char set for Catalan, but I've seen that doesn't work for many other language sets. I tried with:
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
| Status | Subtype | Assigned | Task | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Resolved | bd808 | T55704 Packages to be added to toollabs puppet | |||
| Resolved | scfc | T64269 locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "ca_AD") doesn't work |
Change 140239 had a related patch set uploaded by Tim Landscheidt:
Tools: Install Catalan locale
NB: On Ubuntu, the locales are named "ca_AD.UTF8" & Co.:
| scfc@tools-dev:~$ LANG=ca_AD date |
| Tue Jun 17 22:20:21 UTC 2014 |
| scfc@tools-dev:~$ LANG=ca_AD.UTF8 date |
| dt jun 17 22:20:26 UTC 2014 |
| scfc@tools-dev:~$ |
I don't know if Python adds ".UTF8" automatically, so, if it does not you'll need to change the names (after the referenced patch gets merged).

I have tried "LANG=ca_AD date" and it works fine. But when I type "locale -a", ca_AD and other stuffs don't appear. Then in python console when I type "import locale;locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "ca_AD"), it returns:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib/python2.7/locale.py", line 539, in setlocale return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
As far away as I know this behavior requires to add the ca_AD locale. As it is said on http://askubuntu.com/questions/76013/how-do-i-add-locale-to-ubuntu-server it can be fix with the command "locale-gen ca_AD"
Has been merged, should be present in the nodes in about 30minutes. Can you test and verify after that? Thanks!
