I tested a small C program and found that setlocale takes precedence for
LC_ALL, LC_MESSAGES, and LANG but not for LANGUAGE.
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
char *message1;
//setlocale (LC_ALL, "");
setlocale (LC_ALL, "pt_BR.utf-8");
bindtextdomain ("testc", "/srv/python/cpython/tmp");
textdomain ("testc");
message1 = gettext("lemon");
printf("%s\n", message1);
return 0;
}
$ LC_ALL=es_MX.utf-8 LANGUAGE= LC_MESSAGES=es_MX.utf-8 LANG=es_MX.utf-8 ./test
limão
$ LANGUAGE=es_MX LANG=es_MX.utf-8 ./test
limón
So this could be considered a bug in the stdlib's gettext. If we fix it, we'll
need to make sure that we continue to honor LANGUAGE, though.
