Well, the line definitely is a comment. I don't see a reference to a charset elsewhere in the file. I would say the comment is there to signal 'this file is based on the ISO-8859-15 charset' (see e.g. /usr/share/i18n/locales/[EMAIL PROTECTED]). Hmmm. If I run dpkg-reconfigure locales, I do get: nl_NL ISO-8859-1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ISO-8859-15 So there still _is_ a relation somewhere between the @euro suffix and the charset. Don't know if that's taken from the comment or somewhere else. Maybe, as the nl_NL locale (and those for other Euro-countries) now also uses the Euro sign, nl_NL itself should refer to ISO-8859-15 rather than ISO-8859-1? Problem is, I don't know enough about locales, charsets and encoding to tell. Maybe there is a very good reason why nl_NL still refers to 8859-1. For X of course we still have the seperate 'transcoded' font packages for 8859-15...
