On Debian you're even deeper in it. The user can configure which locales he's actually interested in having on a machine. They're listed in /etc/locale.gen but I wouldn't suggest looking there. I think you have to try switching locales and see if setlocale returns NULL. > Because of ANSI defines collations deffined by ISO-8859-1 and UTF-* we need > to somehow implement these collations. These are encodings. What ANSI spec are you referring to, SQL?
