            Bug ID: 22535
           Summary: en_DE: New locale
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: you_no_me_too at yahoo dot co.uk
                CC: libc-locales at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

I'd like that the locale definition for en_DE to be
included in glibc.

The en_DE (and other en_XX variants) have been added to the CLDR (Common Locale
Data Repository) database about 2 years ago as standard locale definition:
http://unicode.org/cldr/trac/changeset/11969
(as a result of http://unicode.org/cldr/trac/ticket/8642 )

--- Comment #1 from Rafal Luzynski <digitalfreak at lingonborough dot com> ---
Isn't it sufficient to introduce en_EU (bug 22473) and thus avoid inflation of
en_XX locales? Of course for every xx language and YY country we can find
people in YY country who can speak xx language but we are not going to add
xx_YY pairs for every single language/country pair.

This is not an ultimate decision but I suggest to close this report as wontfix.

The proposal for en_EU doesn't work unfortunately as each European country has
different local formats. See the specific bug report for more details. As
maintainer of en_NL, hereby me support in favor of adding en_DE.
