Package: libc-bin
Version: 2.13-35
Severity: important
Hi!
Reporting against libc-bin as that’s where this locale comes from:
tg@freewrt:~ $ dpkg -S /usr/lib/locale/C.UTF-8
libc-bin: /usr/lib/locale/C.UTF-8
Verified to exist in sid (2.13-36).
tg@freewrt:~ $ LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 perl -MPOSIX -e 'print strftime('\''%a %b %e %X
%Y'\'', localtime())."\n";'

Wrong. But the C locale is right:
tg@freewrt:~ $ LC_ALL=C perl -MPOSIX -e 'print strftime('\''%a %b %e %X %Y'\'',
localtime())."\n";'

I think I know where this one comes from:
tg@freewrt:~ $ LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 perl -MPOSIX -e 'print strftime('\''%a %b %e
%X %Y'\'', localtime())."\n";'

tg@freewrt:~ $ LC_ALL=en_GB.UTF-8 perl -MPOSIX -e 'print strftime('\''%a %b %e
%X %Y'\'', localtime())."\n";'

Can we please have the C.UTF-8 locale be a copy of the C locale
with *only* the encoding set to UTF-8, nothing else changed?
Can we please get this fixed in wheezy?
Thanks!
