Bug #: 14010
Summary: Serious omissions in alphabetic character class
Product: glibc
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: localedata
AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: bugdal@aerifal.cx
CC: libc-locales@sources.redhat.com
Classification: Unclassified
The localedata generation code defines is_alpha based on Unicode categories L*,
plus Nl, Nd, and a moderate number of special cases mostly to fix Thai language
support (to fix is_alpha returning false for letters in category Mn). However
Thai is not the only language affected; any language that uses non-spacing
letters is broken by glibc's deficient is_alpha definition. As a particular
example, all of the Tibetan subjoined letters are considered non-alphabetic
(and thus punctuation) by glibc.
Unicode addresses this issue by defining the Other_Alphabetic property in
PropList.txt and the Alphabetic derived property in DerivedCoreProperties.txt,
the latter of which consists of Lu+Ll+Lt+Lm+Lo+Nl + Other_Alphabetic. This
subsumes all special-case hacks for Thai in glibc's gen-unicode-ctype.c and
fixes the issue (at least approximately) for all other languages/scripts at the
same time.
glibc's localedata should adopt the definition of Alphabetic from Unicode's
DerivedCoreProperties.txt (and still add Nd and the special cases from So).

We know that there are over 500 open bugs and bugs are filed faster than
they are fixed. Constructive responses on libc-alpha to
<http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-08/msg00611.html> regarding how
to get more people actively fixing more bugs would be more useful, towards
the goal of getting down to maybe 100 bugs that are genuinely hard, than
pinging individual bugs (unless the ping is for something like reminding
someone to submit a patch or test whether a commit has fixed the bug for
them - where there is clear in-progress work that may have been forgotten
about).
There's plenty of room for an interested person to become glibc's
character set expert and address this bug, bug 14094 and bug 14095 (only
14095 is particularly likely to be hard) and probably other bugs as well.

The connection is that they all (and bug 16061) need someone to act as
glibc's character set / Unicode expert and do a proper analysis of the
issues involved and the current state of this data in glibc.

My view is that I don't think it requires a collation expert to handle
the fixing of the alphabetic class and/or updating the character class
data to latest Unicode. Collation is a much more specialized expertise
requirement.

Joseph, thanks for acknowledging this bug. Issue 14094 looks related (as in,
both could be resolved at the same time, if desired), but 14095 is a completely
separate matter and I don't think it's helpful to tie them together.

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14094#c33 amd following
comments address the problem with the alphabetic class and
updating the character classes to the latest Unicode.
So I think we can mark this bug here as a duplicate of bug#14094.
