Well, you might have heard of it under a slightly different name (I looked at wikipedia earlier, but I forget what that name was). Friulian is what we Brits call it. And technically it isn't a dialect of Italian (it has Rhaeto-Romanic antecedents). But ever since I spent holidays in the alps, I've been fascinated by the different languages and the way that speech in alpine regions can vary even over very short distances (presumably because they used to be cut off from each other for much of the year). Unfortunately, the 'country' label is a red herring - the problem is that the spec for ICC profiles includes two bytes for the language (ISO-639-1) but other languages covered by -2 or -3 need three bytes. I haven't built it without the sed yet, and I'm not sure what will result. Hopefully I'll at least remember to install all locales on my next build. ĸen -- This email was written using 100% recycled letters. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
