Package: liblocale-ruby1.8
Version: 0.1-6
Severity: normal
Currently a "require 'locale'" in Debian is ambiguous:
liblocale-ruby1.8: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i486-linux/locale.so
libgettext-ruby1.8: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/locale.rb
liblocale-ruby is currently inactive upstream, but I contacted the
original author and he already agreed to pass the project to me.
The main difference between liblocale-ruby is that it is able to set the
system locale, what affects most notably date formatting, for example:
----------------------8<------------------------8<-------------------------
$ irb
>> require 'locale.so'
=> true
>> Time.now.strftime('%x')
=> "03/13/08"
>> Locale::setlocale(Locale::LC_ALL, 'pt_BR.utf8')
=> "pt_BR.utf8"
>> Time.now.strftime('%x')
=> "13-03-2008"
----------------------8<------------------------8<-------------------------
At the same time, libgettext-ruby seems to be the de facto gettext-like library
for Ruby, I myself use it for several projects.
I'm copying libgettext-ruby1.8 maintainers hoping that they can provide
some input in the subject. Would you guys have some idea about this?

As current ruby-locale and package the original report was reported against are
totally different except their name and older package is removed from archive
it seems reasonable to close the bug.
