(Without asking for the reason behind the move from no_* to something else...) Please file a wish report against lintian with the list of locales that are being renamed so that it warns about them. E.g. (from the examples you gave) xx_XX -> yy_XX xx_ZZ -> pp_ZZ Locale codes without the country code are also possible but they would need to have a direct translation (e.g. xx -> yy_XX or xx -> yy). The same applies to any other locale that is being renamed or in the case one form is being standardised or any other similar situation. Just file the wish report. P.S. for the next lintian release (2.4.0) I'm just going to add the list of ISO 639-3 codes to the list of valid locale codes. Will switch to those in SUPPORTED once the (e)glibc people comment.
