The determination of locale is now done as follows: collate/ctype:
initdb --lc-collate, initdb --locale, LC_ALL, LC_COLLATE, LANG messages/monetary/numeric/time: Have GUC variables lc_messages, etc. The default is "", which means to inherit from the environment (or whatever setlocale() does with it). However, initdb will initialize postgresql.conf containing assignments to these variables determined as with collate/ctype above. So the "real" defaults are consistent with collate/ctype. initdb --no-locale is the same as initdb --locale=C, for convenience. Let's see if these rules end up making sense to everybody. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
