I'm already trying to hack this postinst for having it deal properly with the Norwegian case (they want to keep no_NO as locale while the built locale is nb_NO). This is 260873, which indeed pertains to countrychooser. > This script should roughly check whether the previously generated locale > concerns an euro country, adds the @euro suffix and checks to see if the new > locale is supported.

This bug report rejoins another BR we have (263317) for which Recai provided a patch (I just discover it). I have applied 263317 patch which should also make half of the work for your suggestion. This patch looks into SUPPORTED locales whether the combination with the modifier inherited from languagechooser is valid. If it isn't, a locale without the modifier is chosen. The other part is adding the @euro modifier for all languages which have a Euro country as primary country. Maintaining a table in countrychooser for the special @euro case is not really satisfactory for me. I'd prefer adding a medium priority question about modifiers when there are different modifiers possibilities for a given locale: -at the end of countrychooser we have xx_YY as LOCALE -we grep SUPPORTED for all supported locales with this -if there are two or more of these, we prompt (medium prio) about the one to choose, defaulting to the one with the modifier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
