Hi,
It seems that glibc 2.17 changes the abbreviated names of weekdays for
"ru_RU" locales by removing an extraneous ".", as described in:
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10873
An earlier patch (circa glibc 2.14) changed (IIUC!) archaic/unusual
three-letter abbreviations to more-common two-letter abbreviations, but
included dots after each weekday name, which was apparently still wrong.
But, the two tests of this feature in the libstdc++ testsuite expect
those dots to be present, so they fail.
So, the attached patch simply removes the expectation that dots are
present in the abbreviated names from the libstdc++ tests in question,
if the glibc version in use is recent enough.
The tests pass (with a current gcc, trunk eglibc) with the attached
patch, and fail (for me) without it (cross-testing to ARM Linux, for
no particular reason). OK to apply?
I think it's Ok, yes. Thanks. However, I would appreciate if somebody
with a glibc 2.17 system at hand could double check. Maybe HJ?
Thanks,
Paolo.
