Adding ckb to locale setting and win langpack

#1

Hey I have to question:

First, Why is Central Kurdish not available to select in Formats > Locale
Setting ?
Second, I want to download ckb langpack for windows, I can't find it in
Daily builds and also download websites, I just want langpack not the whole
app.

Best Regards.

Hi Jwtiyar,

For Format -> Locale setting, you probably should add ckb version to
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/i18npool/source/localedata/data,

Not sure about separate UI langpack file for LibreOffice.

Best regards,

Thanks Baurzhan
I figured out langpack, Its available during installation of LO.
For locale data we already have in CLDR and glibc. How i can use these to
create new one to LO? Or LO doesn't import from gnu or cldr?

Best Regards

Like Baurzhan said, LO has its own collection of locale specification files:

For Format -> Locale setting, you probably should add ckb version to

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/i18npool/source/localedata/data

See bug 127011 (https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127011)
as an example.

Or LO doesn't import from gnu or cldr?

As LO is cross-platform software, it's probably hard to find anything to rely on for
all three supported platforms (Windows, Linux and macOS), and therefore maintaining
its own locale database is a necessary evil.

Hope this helps,
