Description Olga Smirnova 2021-01-15 18:51:22 UTC

The localedef utility, compiling a locale with all supported keys in the LC_TIME section, produces a 45-line LC_TIME file, which is rejected as invalid by 'locale', instead of the correct 58-line one.

Can you provide more information on this (localedef invocation, input/output files)?

Looking at this again, localedef(1) is supposed to work on posix-compatible data and we differ for LC_TIME having 2 additional specifiers (altmon and d_md_order).  The resulting files are plain text and the format is visible in share/timedef/ files.

Given the above, I'm going to close this as "not a bug".  Please reopen if you don't agree.
