Not so fast! Notice how there are still a few tests skipped above, because of missing GETTEXT_ISO_LOCALE. # grep is_IS /etc/locale.gen # is_IS ISO-8859-1 # is_IS.UTF-8 UTF-8 # sed -i -e 's/^# is_IS/is_IS/' /etc/locale.gen # locale-gen Generating locales (this might take a while)... [...] is_IS.ISO-8859-1... done is_IS.UTF-8... done Generation complete. Both UTF-8 and ISO Icelandic locales are generated, good. $ $ ./t0204-gettext-reencode-sanity.sh # lib-gettext: Found 'is_IS.utf8' as an is_IS UTF-8 locale # lib-gettext: Found 'is_IS.iso88591' as an is_IS ISO-8859-1 locale ok 1 - gettext: Emitting UTF-8 from our UTF-8 *.mo files / Icelandic ok 2 - gettext: Emitting UTF-8 from our UTF-8 *.mo files / Runes ok 3 - gettext: Emitting ISO-8859-1 from our UTF-8 *.mo files / Icelandic ok 4 - gettext: impossible ISO-8859-1 output ok 5 - gettext: Fetching a UTF-8 msgid -> UTF-8 ok 6 - gettext: Fetching a UTF-8 msgid -> ISO-8859-1 ok 7 - gettext.c: git init UTF-8 -> UTF-8 ok 8 - gettext.c: git init UTF-8 -> ISO-8859-1 # passed all 8 test(s) And now all those tests are run, great! But look what happens without the language pack: # dpkg -P language-pack-is{,-base} [...] # grep is_IS /etc/locale.gen is_IS ISO-8859-1 is_IS.UTF-8 UTF-8 buzz ~# locale-gen Generating locales (this might take a while)... [...] is_IS.ISO-8859-1... done is_IS.UTF-8... done Generation complete. Still both Icelandic locales are generated. $ ./t0204-gettext-reencode-sanity.sh # lib-gettext: Found 'is_IS.utf8' as an is_IS UTF-8 locale # lib-gettext: Found 'is_IS.iso88591' as an is_IS ISO-8859-1 locale ok 1 - gettext: Emitting UTF-8 from our UTF-8 *.mo files / Icelandic ok 2 - gettext: Emitting UTF-8 from our UTF-8 *.mo files / Runes ok 3 - gettext: Emitting ISO-8859-1 from our UTF-8 *.mo files / Icelandic ok 4 - gettext: impossible ISO-8859-1 output ok 5 - gettext: Fetching a UTF-8 msgid -> UTF-8 ok 6 - gettext: Fetching a UTF-8 msgid -> ISO-8859-1 ok 7 - gettext.c: git init UTF-8 -> UTF-8 ok 8 - gettext.c: git init UTF-8 -> ISO-8859-1 # passed all 8 test(s) And still all those tests are run! I did run all test scripts sourcing 'lib-gettext.sh' with both locales generated and didn't see any errors, independently from whether the language pack was installed or not. I still have a few skipped tests (because of no GETTEXT_POISON and something PCRE-related), but those, too, are independent from the language pack. So it seems that we don't need 'language-pack-is' after all; what we do need are the ISO and UTF-8 Icelandic locales. Not sure we can modify /etc/locale.gen without sudo in the Travis CI build job, though, and I've run out of time to try. Gábor
