Created attachment 8905 [details] Patch to fix the month names I've made a patch to fix the month names in this locale. Links: CLDR data for ar_SY locale: http://unicode.org/repos/cldr/trunk/common/main/ar_SY.xml Local Explorer: http://demo.icu-project.org/icu-bin/locexp?_=ar_SY There's actually a lot of mistakes in ar_* locales and maybe others; ar_LB, for instance, suffer from the same issue reported here. I suggest creating some script or so to periodically incorporate updates and new locales from CLDR into localedata. from what i can tell, that's not what the CLDR db says: https://ssl.icu-project.org/icu-bin/locexp?d_=en&_=ar it shows May as "مايو" and June as "يونيو". unfortunately, i don't understand Arabic, so i'd lean towards the automated db import and just the CLDR values directly. Please note that month names are not the same in all Arab countries. You should compare with ar_SY instead: https://ssl.icu-project.org/icu-bin/locexp?d_=en&_=ar_SY I vote for the automated import too; updating locales manually is cumbersome and error prone. I'm ready to help as needed although I'm not very familiar with glibc itself. (In reply to msaied93 from comment #4) thanks, i've updated my script to search first the locale before falling back to the common language. this is what it shows now: ar_SY: abmon: changing {كانون الثاني";"شباط";"آذار";"نيسان";"نوار";"حزيران";"تموز";"آب";"أيلول";"تشرين الأول";"تشرين الثاني";"كانون الأول} to {كانون الثاني";"شباط";"آذار";"نيسان";"أيار";"حزيران";"تموز";"آب";"أيلول";"تشرين الأول";"تشرين الثاني";"كانون الأول} so this seems to agree with the original request also, while i linked to the ICU projects while saying "CLDR", much of their data is from the CLDR, so it's practically the same. their web interface is a bit nicer than the CLDR site :). (In reply to Mike Frysinger from comment #5) > ar_SY: abmon: changing > {كانون > الثاني";"شباط";"آذار";"نيسان";"نوار";"حزيران";"تموز";"آب";"أيلول";"تشرين > الأول";"تشرين الثاني";"كانون الأول} > to > {كانون > الثاني";"شباط";"آذار";"نيسان";"أيار";"حزيران";"تموز";"آب";"أيلول";"تشرين > الأول";"تشرين الثاني";"كانون الأول} > > so this seems to agree with the original request Yes it does. This is for `abmon`, what about `mon` ? And also I noticed some difference in the date format (d_t_fmt and d_fmt use `,` instead of `،`). There is also LC_NAME which has English values: I didn't see an equivalent for LC_NAME in CLDR data. (In reply to msaied93 from comment #6) this is the abmon update: ar_SY: abmon: changing {كانون الثاني";"شباط";"آذار";"نيسان";"نوار";"حزيران";"تموز";"آب";"أيلول";"تشرين الأول";"تشرين الثاني";"كانون الأول} to {كانون الثاني";"شباط";"آذار";"نيسان";"أيار";"حزيران";"تموز";"آب";"أيلول";"تشرين الأول";"تشرين الثاني";"كانون الأول} the abmon/mon/abday/day are all handled the same way now in my script the xxx_fmt fields will take more time, but i think i can get them out of cldr i haven't found a solution for LC_NAME fields as they aren't in cldr This is an automated email from the git hooks/post-receive script.

commit 1bea5858dd5b2615288e96525f3918e35f42dd2d

Arabic scripts: More fixes after the recent import.
After the recent import of month names from CLDRv31 (bug 21217,
commit c853f14) more imports are also needed, mostly abbreviated month
names.
This patch also updates May (full month name) in ps_AF which was
skipped in the previous patch.
Incidentally, this import fixes bug 17225 (ar_SY) and partially
bug 19066 (ar_SA).
CLDR currently has a bug in the full month name for October for ar_IQ, see
http://unicode.org/cldr/trac/ticket/10460
* localedata/locales/ar_DZ (abmon): Full import from CLDR, abmon
is no longer abbreviated.
* localedata/locales/ar_IQ (abmon): Likewise.
* localedata/locales/ar_MA (abmon): Likewise.
* localedata/locales/ar_TN (abmon): Likewise.
* localedata/locales/ps_AF (abmon): Likewise.
* localedata/locales/ug_CN (abmon): Likewise.
* localedata/locales/ar_SA (abmon): Likewise, partially
fixes bug 19066.
* localedata/locales/ks_IN (abmon): A copy of mon.
* localedata/locales/ur_IN (abmon): Oct reworded "اكتوبر" to
"اکتوبر" (same change as mon).
* localedata/locales/ur_PK (abmon): Same changes as mon applied.
* localedata/locales/ps_AF (mon): May reworded "می" to "مۍ".
[BZ #17225]
* localedata/locales/ar_SY (abmon): May reworded "نوار" to
"أيار", this closes bug 17225.
* localedata/locales/ar_JO (abmon): Likewise.
* localedata/locales/ar_LB (abmon): Likewise.
