If you've initdb'd in an appropriate locale (probably named something like ru_RU.utf8) then it should work. I wouldn't expect a random non-Russian locale to necessarily know about Cyrillic case conversions, however. Martijn's nearby comment about OS dependency really boils down to the fact that different OSes may have different definitions for similarly named locales. We need to know what locale you're using (try "SHOW LC_CTYPE") as well as the OS. regards, tom lane
