Description From 2009-09-09 07:37:26 PST
While discussing bug #5675, which requires running lynx with an iso-8859
locale, the question has come up whether or not the moblin spec should require
the presence of one or more locales, or one or more charsets.  Right now the
Moblin spec is silent on the issue, so an OSV that only supported the "C"
locale and an ASCII charset would be conisdered compliant.  This could
potentially be surprising to some applications.   The bug is to track this spec
question.
