With the default settings for this locale I'm unable to type non-ASCII characters such as =C3=A4=C3=B6=C3=BC=C3=9F in many applications. The cause appears to be that /usr/share/i18n/locales/nds_DE defines LC_CTYP= E to en_DK which looks very weird. Manually exporting LC_CTYPE=3Dde_DE.UTF-8 fix= es the bug for me. I don't see why this is not the default setting. Most other LC_* variables = use the de_DE definition by default in nds_DE. Is this a bug, or is there a rea= son why it's done this way? Best regards and thanks in advance :) --- P.S. I hope this is the right place for this topic; if not, please feel fre= e to point out where this belongs. The ubuntu package search told me my locales = are provided by the package `locales` which is provided by package `glibc` vers= ion `2.33-0ubuntu5`. Original question was at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+question/698525. P.P.S. I'm also surprised that the locale definition uses the localized language name "Neddersass'sch" although "Plattd=C3=BC=C3=BCtsch" and "Platt= d=C3=BCtsch" are far more common forms. Nice to speak a language that can't decide on it's o= wn name. But that just as a side note :) Should I open a separate bug report f= or this? --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.=
