Albanian language support for the country of Macedonia

Description Agron Selimaj 2010-04-06 06:39:29 UTC
Please copy the attached new file "sq_MK" into glibc/localedata/locales/ 
and save it as sq_MK

This file adds Albanian language support for the country of Macedonia, while
preserving the Macedonian currency, address format, telephone codes and page format.

The currency symbol in Albanian language is written in Latin letters because of
Albanian alphabet is in Latin letter.

This is not how you do this.  If information is identical from another file you
use the copy directive to include the data for the category.  Duplication is
only leading to outdated data.  There are many examples of this in the other
locale files.

Update your patch.

Good point Ulrich. 

I removed all redundant code and used the copy statement. The only code that is
left is for identification and currency. Those are unique to sq_MK only.

Almost.  The CTYPE category can also wholesale used from sq_AL.

I've made the change and it's in git.
