            Bug ID: 26383
           Summary: bind_textdomain_codeset doesn't accept //TRANSLIT
                    anymore
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.32
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: locale
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: aurelien at aurel32 dot net
                CC: arjun.is at lostca dot se
  Target Milestone: ---

bind_textdomain_codeset used to accept a charset ending with //TRANSLIT, as
described in the documentation:
"The bind_textdomain_codeset function can be used to specify the output
character set for message catalogs for domain domainname. The codeset argument
must be a valid codeset name which can be used for the iconv_open function, or
a null pointer."

However this is not the case anymore in glibc 2.32, and more precisely since
commit 91927b7c76437db860cd86a7714476b56bb39d07. This can be seen with the
following testcase:

#include <libintl.h>
#include <locale.h>
#include <stdio.h>

void main()
{
        setlocale(LC_ALL, "fr_FR.UTF-8");

        bind_textdomain_codeset("libc", "utf-8//TRANSLIT");
        printf("translation of NAME into French: %s\n", dgettext("libc",
"NAME"));
}

With glibc 2.31, it prints:
translation of NAME into French: NOM

With glibc 2.32, it prints:
translation of NAME into French: NAME
