            Bug ID: 22963
           Summary: cs_CZ: Add alternative month names
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.27
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org

  Target Milestone: ---

Following the previous work on bug 10871 now it's time to add alternative m=
onth
names (nominative; and the primary month names should be genitive now) for
Czech language.

The rules of Czech language are not fully clear for me: I don't know if the
usage of the genitive case in dates is obligatory (probably no), encouraged
(probably yes), more natural (probably yes), neutral (maybe?), discouraged =
(I
don't know), only if whole date is in a genitive context (hopefully no),
totally prohibited (probably no). But now as a Czech translator has pushed =
the
genitive cases to GLib [1] and confirmed that this is what he wants I think=
 we
should do the same here. The change in GLib will cause the genitive cases to
appear in GLib with *older* versions of glibc than 2.27 while in newer vers=
ions
there will be only nominative cases. The reason is that GLib provides the
genitive cases for the systems which do not support them. glibc 2.27 does
support genitive cases but does not provide them for Czech language. This d=
oes
not make sense. We should push the change and assume that the Czech transla=
tors
will handle the exceptions themselves.
