The UTF-8 localedef extensions file is missing in Nevada and OpenSolaris.
Formerly, the /usr/lib/localedef/extensions/UTF-8.x file was part of SUNWeuluf package, and should have been moved to SUNWlang-common pkg. But it seems to disappear from the system.
In S10 URses the UTF-8.x exists and is part f SUNWeuluf pkg.
The UTF-8.x file is needed by locale creator tool when compiling locales. Currently locale creator cannot be used to create a new locale package. Here is a test case:
# localectr -l km_KH -d /tmp/jan -c /ws/onnv-tools/SUNWspro/SS11/bin
Creating locale data source file for km_KH.UTF-8@localectr ...
Building locale data package /tmp/jan/LCTRkm-KH-UTF-8-localectr ...
Error : localedef utility failed to build 32 bit locale data binary
If you edit a /usr/lib/localectr/build_locales.pl script (used by localectr to build locale shared libs) to see the output of localedef execution, you get following error:
"Could not open '/usr/lib/localedef/extensions/UTF-8.x' for read."
That happens because localedef cannot find the UTF-8.x extension file.
You can find localedef executions at lines 245 and 256 in build_locales.pl script. Following diff shows how to get the error output of localedef executions:
