             Bug #: 15400
           Summary: Fixing locale data for gd-GB
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: fios@akerbeltz.org
                CC: libc-locales@sourceware.org
    Classification: Unclassified

diff of the changes

The locale data for gd-GB (Scottish Gaelic) on Ubuntu contained numerous
errors; I was ultimately referred to Claude who helped me fix the file over on
http://lh.2xlibre.net/.

I have exported the file, manually checked as requested and made some
amendments that the UI did not allow (such as changing copy "en_DK" to copy
"iso14651_t1" for the collate rules - even if that's handled by some other
process, referring to en_DK isn't such a great idea) and added the actual data
(instead of copy "en_GB").

Made a diff as requested and I would like to submit this for fixing - ideally
sooner than later but I realise it takes time! I hope the diff is ok, if not I
can provide the actual file too, I'm more of a translator than developer but I
try my best :)

I think that when you have identical value as en_GB, you should keep the 'copy
"en_GB"' instead of expanding the values.

There is a problem with LC_MESSAGES, you only changed the comments, not the
real values.

Did you try to contact the original author, so as he might confirm the changes?

Ok I will change those back if that's what this project requires :)

No, I didn't, there were so many basic errors I don't consider it a good use of
my limited time. I have done locale data for CLDR, Microsoft and a dozen other
projects so I know I'm right (from a linguistic POV even if my skills in code
are deficient).

new diff

New diff uploaded, I know what went wrong with the messages - I changed it
online but then ran the diff off the local copy I had taken. Fixed.

To give you 3 examples, the file contained the following
An t-Mhìos (June)
An t-luchar (July)
Gaidhlig na h-Albanñ

These are inexcusable - even if creating the file was well meant, I'm sure.
They should be:
An t-Ògmhios (totally messed up month name)
An t-Iuchar (it's a capital i not an L)
Gàidhlig (missing grave, no idea where the tilde comes from, it's not even in
the locale char set, overly long form and archaic grammar that is no longer
recommended)
