Summary: setlocale() fails if LC_CTYPE is set to Turkish locale
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
Version: 6.1
Platform: x86_64
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: low

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #726536 +++
Description of problem:
If the current locale is Turkish, setting a new locale fails if
the locale contains an 'I'.
Steps to Reproduce:
Compile and run:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>
int
main(void)
{
char *s;
printf("%s\n", setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "tr_TR"));
printf("%s\n", setlocale(LC_CTYPE, NULL));
s = setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "tr_TR.ISO8859-9");
printf("%s\n", s ? s : "null");
return 0;
}
Actual results:
[stefan at fedora-14-amd64 ~]$ ./xxx
tr_TR
tr_TR
null
Expected results:
tr_TR
tr_TR
tr_TR.ISO8859-9
Additional info:
My guess is that somewhere tolower() fails to convert the 'I'
to a proper lowercase 'i' if LC_CTYPE is Turkish.

The test case works with libc-2.11.1:
Ubuntu Lucid (libc-2.11.1), OpenSUSE (libc-2.11.1)
But not with:
Fedora 14 (libc-2.13), Fedora 12 ( libc-2.11.2), Debian lenny (libc-2.7),
Gentoo (libc-2.13-r2)
If this is a regression in glibc, perhaps the priority should be
raised (or set).

Package glibc-2.14.90-5:
* should fix your issue,
* was pushed to the Fedora 16 testing repository,
* should be available at your local mirror within two days.
Update it with:
# su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing glibc-2.14.90-5'
as soon as you are able to.
Please go to the following url:

Since the (automated) message asked me to test: Yes, of course I could,
but all download links for Fedora-16 pre-release still point to
Fedora-15-beta:
http://fedoraproject.org/get-prerelease.html
Is there an easy way (preferably a network install iso) to get Fedora-16 alpha?
