This add-on package contains the data needed to build the locale data
files to use the internationalization features of the GNU libc.
This directory contains the data needed to build the locale data files
to use the internationalization features of the GNU libc.
POSIX.2 describes the `localedef' utility which is part of the GNU libc.
You need this program to "compile" the locale description in a form
suitable for fast access by the GNU libc functions. Any compilation is
based on a given character set.
To use these data files you should add the name of this add-on
(localedata) to the list of add-on you specify while compiling the GNU
libc:
configure --enable-add-ons=...,localedata ...
where ... are the options you normally choose. Once you run `make
install' for the GNU libc the data files are automatically installed in
