The acceptance made the fix of https://launchpad.net/bugs/991002 easier. In Ubuntu we now use the common_name field when present also for languages. We have also patched the bn_XX locales (for nl_langinfo()), and with the change in localechooser Ubuntu 13.04 will use the name Bangla consistently all over. @Christian: Do we want to spread the use of our OSs to Bangla speaking people? I guess we do. So let's not make them face an outdated name of their language even before they have installed it. ;-) -- Gunnar Hjalmarsson https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
