--- Comment #202 from Maxim Egorushkin <maxim.yegorush...@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Kevin Kofler from comment #201) > Well, the thing is, Qt does not actually use the system-wide locales, i.e., > glibc/POSIX locales. What it does is map the glibc locale to a Unicode > locale and then use that with ICU and/or with bundled copies of Unicode > tables within Qt. So just inventing a glibc locale would not fix it, because > it would not map to anything in Qt. And the tables in Qt are hardcoded and > cannot be extended at runtime. > > IMHO, the whole QLocale system should be thrown away / ignored / blacklisted > (just like, e.g., QHttp) and KDE code ported to a resurrected KLocale (based > on the old kdelibs 3 code, not on QLocale) instead. I am not sure if begging open-source developers ever worked, because someone has to pay the work, unless the developer wants to make a name with changes for themselves, which could be a quite tall order here. Would you like to spec the changes, as well as time and money required to materialize those changes? Or anyone else still listening to this conversation? With that we can try crowdfunding the change and see what happens? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
