Subject: Romanian localedata has several problems - corrected in patch
To: bug-glibc-locales@gnu.org


Hello,

I have made some modifications to glibc 2.3.5 to correct some problems:
* locales/ro_RO: Correct the sorting order of the letters a
circumflex and a with breve according to the Romanian alphabet.
* locales/ro_RO: Do not use capital A with breve within day names
* locales/ro_RO: Use Romanian post-92 writing rules within day
and abday

The patch was tested on gentoo with a modified ebuild script and
really corrects all the mentioned bugs.
.
Please integrate it into the glibc source (I have added an entry in
localedata/Changelog; please modify if needed)


PS: I saw that the CHECKSUMS file seems to be outdated. Should this be this way?

Hi Eddy,

You have to file a bug at
   http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/
(product glibc, component localedata), otherwise your request will
be ignored.  Just a minor point, I found your description of the 2nd
item misleading, maybe you could write instead
  * locales/ro_RO: Lowercase A with breve within day names

Thanks for the tip. I have corrected the entry, also (see 2125)
