Oops, I misread the bug report #1158490. I thought it is the
same problem as described here. This is a separate issue,
and I edited the summary accordingly. The bug can be
reproduced with:
$ env -i [EMAIL PROTECTED] python2.5 -c "import locale; print
locale.getdefaultlocale()"
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Sorry, but this patch doesn't fix the bug. See bug #1158490
for discussion.

Sorry, I mean England hasn't accepted euro as default
currency, not that England hasn't joined EU. Sometimes I
write not what I think :)

There is no [EMAIL PROTECTED] because England hasn't joined EU :)
If the code that tries to guess encoding is removed it will
raise an exception:
ValueError: unknown locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Like locale command line tool prints warning:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] locale charmap
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file
or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such
file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or
directory
ANSI_X3.4-1968

Wouldn't removing the if '@' stuff break other cases? For
example locale.normalize('[EMAIL PROTECTED]') still returns
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. In this case the @euro part would not get
split off and will be returned. When I understand the
documentation of getdefaultlocale() correctly, it is not
supposed to return the @euro part.

I think the correct fix is to remove the whole if '@' in
code:. There is also a comment that the code under if is
bogus. The reason for the breakage is that
locale.normalize('[EMAIL PROTECTED]') started to return
de_DE.ISO8859-15

I forgot an example. this fails for me on current CVS:
$ env [EMAIL PROTECTED] python2.5 -c "import locale; print
locale.getdefaultlocale()"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in ?
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/locale.py", line 357, in
getdefaultlocale
return _parse_localename(localename)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/locale.py", line 280, in
_parse_localename
code, modifier = code.split('@')
ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack
The error is that the @ char is searched in the original
locale, but the split is done on the normalized locale.
Hence the unpack error.

I don't get what this patch fixes. It actually changes
handling of locales with @ sign, but there is no mentioning
of that in bug 1158490. What do I miss?
