Hi Dennis, yes all non utf-8 locales are placed in SUNWlang-*-extra packages. The reason is that in OpenSolaris UTF-8 locales are preferred and due to limited space on LiveCD other locales were added only to repository. UTF-8 locale are included in SUNWlang-*.
As to get en_CA.ISO8859-1 support adding SUNWlang-en-extra is all you need. Right now there is a bit problem if you would like to login to desktop using this locale. I have submitted issue for it (http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=2414). ----- Exporting locale in terminal environment works well. As to login to desktop session for other then UTF-8 locale (e.g. en_CA.ISO8859-1), there is workaround: 1. change default locale setting in /etc/default/init 2. reboot the system 3. login in gdm using System Default option ---- I have tried and works for me ...
