You're welcome!
In the meantime I checked in your file into the -current source
tree, but didn't close the problem yet, because other LC_TIME files
are still missing. (See also problem conf/5409)
So I ask people from those countries to send me LC_TIME files (in
source form, i. e. with the comment lines like in
/usr/src/share/timedef/data/*.src). You can test your files by
deleting the commentlines, installing it in the locale directory
(e. g. /usr/share/locale/es_ES...) setting the LANG environment
variable accordingly and running cal(1).
The LC_TIME files are missing for these locales:
fi_FI.ISO_8859-1
lt_LN.ASCII
lt_LN.ISO_8859-1
lt_LN.ISO_8859-2
nl_BE.ISO_8859-1
nl_NL.ISO_8859-1
sv_SE.ISO_8859-1
I do not know, what language/country lt/LN belongs to. The others
are Finland, Belgium, Netherlands and Sveden. (at least that's what
I learned from /usr/share/misc/iso3166.)
Thanks again for your file, Jose
and thanks in advance for the others :-)
Wolfgang
