add more locale #15

Closed ghost closed 9 years ago

ghost commented 9 years ago

Is it possible to add the locale pl_PL.UTF-8 ? I have a problem with special characters (like ąęśćżńł) in Midnight commaner and own scripts. I'm trying to replace entware with optware-ng on linksys e3200 with tomatoshibby. Polish special characters is the only thing I was missing

It is doable, but in uClibc locale data is compiled into the library, unlike with glibc. This helps to save space, but means you can't add/remove locale during runtime. I just tried to compile uClibc-ng with all the locales, and it is approximately now twice as large as before. It's fine, though, since I don't think that additional ~ 1MB is really an issue in the modern days, don't you agree?

It's fine for me...How can I test it? ~ 1MB - it makes no difference for me :)

Works great - there is small problem with fonts in dialog, but mc/nano works great. btw libjpeg is very (6)old and it's not compatibile with minidlna-rescan (requires 8) :(

alllexx88 commented 9 years ago

Good. As for jpeg, there was a packaging bug, thanks for noticing. Fixed, and will update the feeds soon. For now, you can upgrade it manually: http://optware-ng.zyxmon.org/buildroot-armeabi-ng/libjpeg_8d-1_arm.ipk

Ah, sorry, you router is MIPSEL: http://optware-ng.zyxmon.org/buildroot-mipsel-ng/libjpeg_8d-1_mipsel.ipk

alllexx88 commented 9 years ago

OK, feeds updated.

It works everything. As for the PL locale, I noticed a problem with a package "dialog". Do not display Polish characters, do not display them properly when typing, but when I view the result by the echo - they are displayed properly. It's a small problem. I suspect that there is something wrong with utf-8 in this package. Minidlna now works perfectly. The fast rescan option is great. BTW, where i can post for adding some new packages (I used earlier Entware and a few I'm missing)

alllexx88 commented 9 years ago

I've upgraded dialog and built it with wide ncurses version, maybe it'll help. As for adding new packages, create issues here, preferably separate issue for each package

ghost commented 9 years ago

Still there is something wrong. All the Polish signs work, except one - ó - shows "M-s". Earlier, all Polish character also was showing as "M-*". But it's works :) thx
