The convenience install target 'install-locale-files' is created
to allow distributions to install all of the SUPPORTED locales as
files instead of into the locale-archive.
You invoke the new convenience target like this:
make localedata/install-locale-files DESTDIR=<prefix>
In commit 9479b6d5e0 we updated all of
the collation data to harmonize with the new version of ISO 14651
which is derived from Unicode 9.0.0. This collation update brought
with it some changes to locales which were not desirable by some
users, in particular it altered the meaning of the
locale-dependent-range regular expression, namely [a-z] and [A-Z], and
for en_US it caused uppercase letters to be matched by [a-z] for the
first time. The matching of uppercase letters by [a-z] is something
which is already known to users of other locales which have this
property, but this change could cause significant problems to en_US
and other similar locales that had never had this change before.
Whether this behaviour is desirable or not is contentious and GNU Awk
has this to say on the topic:
https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/html_node/Ranges-and-Locales.html
While the POSIX standard also has this further to say: "RE Bracket
Expression":
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/xrat/V4_xbd_chap09.html
"The current standard leaves unspecified the behavior of a range
expression outside the POSIX locale. ... As noted above, efforts were
made to resolve the differences, but no solution has been found that
would be specific enough to allow for portable software while not
invalidating existing implementations."
In glibc we implement the requirement of ISO POSIX-2:1993 and use
collation element order (CEO) to construct the range expression, the
API internally is __collseq_table_lookup(). The fact that we use CEO
and also have 4-level weights on each collation rule means that we can
in practice reorder the collation rules in iso14651_t1_common (the new
data) to provide consistent range expression resolution *and* the
weights should maintain the expected total order. Therefore this
patch does three things:
* Reorder the collation rules for the LATIN script in
iso14651_t1_common to deinterlace uppercase and lowercase letters in
the collation element orders.
* Adds new test data en_US.UTF-8.in for sort-test.sh which exercises
strcoll* and strxfrm* and ensures the ISO 14651 collation remains.
* Add back tests to tst-fnmatch.input and tst-regexloc.c which
exercise that [a-z] does not match A or Z.
The reordering of the ISO 14651 data is done in an entirely mechanical
fashion using the following program attached to the bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23393#c28
It is up for discussion if the iso14651_t1_common data should be
refined further to have 3 very tight collation element ranges that
include only a-z, A-Z, and 0-9, which would implement the solution
sought after in:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23393#c12
and implemented here:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-07/msg00854.html
No regressions on x86_64.
Verified that removal of the iso14651_t1_common change causes tst-fnmatch
to regress with:
422: fnmatch ("[a-z]", "A", 0) = 0 (FAIL, expected FNM_NOMATCH) ***
...
425: fnmatch ("[A-Z]", "z", 0) = 0 (FAIL, expected FNM_NOMATCH) ***

There is a glibc optimization which allows for locale categories
to be removed during static compilation. There have been various
bugs for this support over the years, with bug 16915 being the
most recent. The solution there was to emit a reference to all the
categories to avoid any being removed. This fix, although it's in
the generic __nl_langinfo_l function, doesn't appear to be enough
to fix the case for a statically linked program that uses newlocale
and nl_langinfo_l. This commit doesn't fix the problem, but it does
add a XFAIL'd test case such that a fix can be applied against this
and the XFAIL removed. It's not entirely clear that the problem is
the same as that which was seen in bug 16915.

As spotted by GNOME translation team, Greek language has the actually
visible difference between the abbreviated nominative and the abbreviated
genitive case for some month names. Examples:
May:
abbreviated nominative: "Μάι" -> abbreviated genitive: "Μαΐ"
July:
abbreviated nominative: "Ιούν" -> abbreviated genitive: "Ιουλ"
and more month names with similar differences.

These lines don’t yet work because of a glibc bug, not because of
problems in the locale data. No matter what sorting rules one uses,
these characters cannot be sorted at all at the moment.
As soon as that bug is fixed, these lines should be added back to the
test file.
* localedata/cmn_TW.UTF-8.in: Remove the lines which cannot
be sorted correctly at the moment because of a bug.
With out this, adding collation test files like localedata/gez_ER.UTF-8@abegede.in
does not work for locales which contain @ modifiers.
* gen-locales.mk: Make test files which contain @ modifiers in their
name work.
* localedata/gen-locale.sh: Likewise.
* localedata/da_DK.ISO-8859-1.in: In the new iso14651_t1_common file
downloaded from ISO, the collation order of @-. and space has changed.
Therefore, this test file needed to be adapted.
* localedata/fr_CA.UTF-8.in: Likewise.
* localedata/fr_FR.UTF-8.in: Likewise.
* localedata/uk_UA.UTF-8.in: Likewise.
* localedata/cs_CZ.UTF-8.in: adapt this test file to the collation
order of ȥ in the new iso14651_t1_common file.
* localedata/pl_PL.UTF-8.in: Likewise.
Entries for characters which have “IGNORE” on all 4 levels like:
<U0001> IGNORE;IGNORE;IGNORE;IGNORE % START OF HEADING (in ISO 6429)
are changed into:
<U0001> IGNORE;IGNORE;IGNORE;<U0001> % START OF HEADING (in ISO 6429)
i.e. putting the code point of the character into the fourth level
instead of “IGNORE”. Without that change, all such characters
would compare equal which would make a wcscoll test case fail.
It is better to have a clearly defined sort order even for characters
like this so it is good to use the code point as a tie-break.
* localedata/locales/iso14651_t1_common: Use the code point of a
character in the fourth collation level instead of IGNORE for all
entries which have IGNORE on all 4 levels.
* localedata/locales/iso14651_t1_common: Add some convenient collation
symbols like <AFTER-A>, <BEFORE-A> to make tailoring easier using
rules similar to those in CLDR.

[BZ #14095] - Review / update collation data from Unicode / ISO 14651
File downloaded from:
http://standards.iso.org/iso-iec/14651/ed-4/ISO14651_2016_TABLE1_en.txt
Updating this file alone is not enough, there are problems in the new
file which need to be fixed and the collation rules for many locales
need to be adapted. This is done by the following patches.
This update also fixes the problem that many characters are treated as
identical when sorting because they were not yet in the old
iso14651_t1_common file, see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1336308
- Infinite (∞) and empty set (∅) are treated as if they were the same character by sort and uniq

[BZ #10871]
* localedata/locales/pl_PL: Alternative month names added,
primary month names are genitive now.
* time/tst-strptime.c (day_tests): Actually use a genitive case
of a month name in Polish language.
Some languages (Slavic, Baltic, etc.) require a genitive case of the
month name when formatting a full date (with the day number) while
they require a nominative case when referring to the month standalone.
This requirement cannot be fulfilled without providing two forms for
each month name. From now it is specified that nl_langinfo(MON_1)
series (up to MON_12) and strftime("%B") generate the month names in
the grammatical form used when the month is a part of a complete date.
If the grammatical form used when the month is named by itself is needed,
the new values nl_langinfo(ALTMON_1) (up to ALTMON_12) and
strftime("%OB") are supported. This new feature is optional so the
languages which do not need it or do not yet provide the updated
locales simply do not use it and their behaviour is unchanged.
