--- Comment #220 from Kevin Kofler <kevin.kof...@chello.at> --- One issue is that dropping a locale file into a folder for glibc will not be sufficient to fix it, because Qt does not actually use POSIX locales internally, but ICU locales, and has a hardcoded mapping from POSIX to ICU locales. So, for a custom glibc locale to work, Qt would need to be changed to use the POSIX APIs instead of ICU ones, and that would likely mean that POSIX, or at least glibc's implementation of it, would have to grow some additional locale APIs that Qt needs. (Last I checked, the maintainers of the Qt locale codes claimed that the POSIX/glibc locale APIs are not sufficient for their needs.) I still think that, as I had written in comment #6, KDE should just go back to using a KDE-specific locale and formatting implementation and bypassing the inferior Qt, POSIX, and ICU ones. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
