I'm pretty sure rpm must have a way to query it by giving the file and asking what package it belongs to. > I was under the impression that actually the LC_xxx files in > /usr/lib/locales/ determined the locale setting? I think the /usr/share/i18n/locales/* files are simply text based versions of those files - I have not confirmed this though, on speculating. > > See that "grouping" differs. > (I have not extensively checked other LC_xxx files) I have tried that test on my side using en_GB, en_ZA and af_ZA and the "grouping" is the same in either text or LC_xxx files. Maybe your text files and LC_xxx files are differing versions? Either way, parsing the /usr/share/i18n/locales/* should give much better locale results than the current FPC implementation under Unix systems. If you don't use the libc locale unit, everything is hard-coded to en_US which is not so nice.
