Hebrew locale

[Shachar Shemesh]

Hi all,

Need help, please.

I am trying to get someone's RedHat 8 to work with Hebrew. To that end, I need the he_IL locale compiled properly. Sadly, this is not currently the case on his system. locale -a specifies that only en locales are compiled.

Cheerfully, I try to compile the he locale, then. Right? This system was not touched by anyone but RPMs.

I type "localedef -i he_IL he_IL". It fails with LOCALE COMPILATION ERRORS!!!! It complains that the characters are not defined as their string name. I look at the locale definition, and sure enough - they are not.

My questions:
A. Do RedHat ship locale definitions that the locale compiler they ship cannot groke?
B. How do I get RedHat 8 to recognize the he_IL locale?

*sigh* I love Debian.

Shachar
