Not the right place for this but these Arch Linux glibc package changes might be improvements: - Provide [localedata/SUPPORTED](https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=localedata/SUPPORTED;h=c8b63cc2fe2b4547f2fb1bff6193da68d70bd563;hb=HEAD) as `/usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED`. Though the contents of the glibc `localedata/SUPPORTED` file is...

Here is what this pull request looks like working with multiple locales: ``` >>> from archinstall.lib.locale_helpers import Locale, LocaleUtils >>> locale_names = ['en_US.UTF-8', 'de_DE.UTF-8', 'de_DE.ISO-8859-1', 'de_DE.ISO-8859-15@euro'] >>> locales = []...

I appreciate you passing along the message about the Arch Linux glibc package. Would you please link to the comment when passing the information along? I have just edited that...

Another message regarding the Arch Linux glibc package: >**Note** The patch file [supported.diff](https://gist.github.com/codefiles/bfcb09c3e19f972685d2bd86bec3766b/2d70eb5daab1e46784c60cabc7044c8b925cb4ad) implements everything below. - Debian [0][1] and Gentoo [2] process `localedata/SUPPORTED` to generate `/usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED`.

This may also clear things up: ``` $ curl -sO "https://salsa.debian.org/glibc-team/glibc/-/raw/sid/debian/generate-supported.mk" $ make -sf generate-supported.mk IN=localedata/SUPPORTED OUT=SUPPORTED.debian $ sed \ -e "/^#/d" \ -e "/SUPPORTED-LOCALES=/d" \ -e "s: \\\\::g" -e...

It is ok, should be a lot clearer now. It is hard to find a middle ground between being terse and verbose when describing issues. Terse descriptions might lack clarity...

In regards to the Arch Linux glibc package, two of the bullets in my earlier comment, https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/pull/1423#issuecomment-1238793882, have now been resolved by: - https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/commit/d6f2e1f80af0f94e6b024552ad9a94842002356d - https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/commit/b09829c6ca6b116f8d16db9f7de7fde72f47e758 @freswa, the revised patch...

The latest commit requires the next release of the glibc package for https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/commit/b09829c6ca6b116f8d16db9f7de7fde72f47e758.

The glibc package has been updated. Be aware that if this is merged the current ISO (2022.10.01) will not meet the required version of glibc when using `master`.
