            Bug ID: 15969
           Summary: re-search for locale aliases in archives
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.18
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: aoliva at sourceware dot org

patch that fixes this problem

If a locale alias is defined in locale.alias but not in an archive, and the
referenced locale is only present in the archive, setlocale will fail if given
the alias name.  This is unintuitive.  We should search the archive for the
definition of the locale, even if the alias is defined in locale.alias.

    BZ #15969: search locale archive again after alias expansion

    If a locale alias is defined in locale.alias but not in an archive,
    and the referenced locale is only present in the archive, setlocale
    will fail if given the alias name.  This is unintuitive.  This patch
    fixes it, arranging for the locale archive to be searched again after
    alias expansion.

    for  ChangeLog

        [BZ #15969]
        * locale/findlocale.c (_nl_find_locale): Retry archive search
        after alias expansion.
