X-Git-Tag: v3.1.4rc1~28 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=02a67ac72be5adb37431b18c3f4b7cb060be6e16;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git Fix #10154 and #10090: locale normalizes the UTF-8 encoding to "UTF-8" instead of "UTF8" On MacOSX and OpenBSD (and possibly other BSDs) "en_US.UTF-8" is a valid locale while "en_US.UTF8" is not. As the former works on Linux as well it is better to normalize to that value. --- diff --git a/Lib/locale.py b/Lib/locale.py index 8c44625e05f6..a1283a3a1447 100644 --- a/Lib/locale.py +++ b/Lib/locale.py @@ -640,7 +640,7 @@ locale_encoding_alias = { 'tactis': 'TACTIS', 'euc_jp': 'eucJP', 'euc_kr': 'eucKR', - 'utf_8': 'UTF8', + 'utf_8': 'UTF-8', 'koi8_r': 'KOI8-R', 'koi8_u': 'KOI8-U', # XXX This list is still incomplete.
