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.

abday is fixed as well now, closing as FIXED. |
The localedata/locales/ar_SA file has English data for abday and abmon. I don't know for certain that this is wrong but it probably is. For reference when I run:- for i in `locale -a|grep '^ar_.*\.utf8'`; do LC_ALL="$i" date "+$i: day ab:%a full:%A month ab:%b full:%B"; done I get the following output:- ar_AE.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_BH.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_DZ.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_EG.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_IN.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_IQ.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_JO.utf8: day ab:الاثنين full:الاثنين month ab:تشرين الأول full:تشرين الأول ar_KW.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_LB.utf8: day ab:الاثنين full:الاثنين month ab:تشرين الأول full:تشرين الأول ar_LY.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_MA.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_OM.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_QA.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_SA.utf8: day ab:Mon full:الإثنين month ab:Oct full:تشرين الأول ar_SD.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_SY.utf8: day ab:الاثنين full:الاثنين month ab:تشرين الأول full:تشرين الأول ar_TN.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر ar_YE.utf8: day ab:ن full:الاثنين month ab:أكت full:أكتوبر Clearly ar_SA has Mon and Oct which stand out. I have checked git and English has been used since the earliest version from 2000-02-12. As I understand it the raw data that most of the locale files were based on came from the CLDR many years ago. Looking at the current CLDR(release 28 http://unicode.org/Public/cldr/28/core.zip) the ar_SA.xml file has no variation from the base ar.xml file. There is a locale explorer available here http://demo.icu-project.org/icu-bin/locexp the Saudi Arabia link is http://demo.icu-project.org/icu-bin/locexp?d_=en&_=ar_SA But note that http://www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/28/ warns that the source xml data is more up to date than anything else and may contain more information.
