Message #5 received at submit <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
When my language and locale are set to "eo," (Esperanto), the character
encoding in Emacs is the wrong character encoding. It should be UTF-8,
but instead it's something else. I think the problem is in the
=locale-language-names= variable, which has these lines:
("en_IN" "English" utf-8) ; glibc uses utf-8 for English in India
("en" "English" iso-8859-1) ; English
("eo" . "Esperanto") ; Esperanto
("es" "Spanish" iso-8859-1)
The line ("eo" . "Esperanto") should probably instead be ("eo"
"Esperanto" utf-8).
To test this, set your LANG variable to "eo" and then notice that the
character encooding (locale-coding-system) is not utf-8, as it should be.

If you want the UTF-8 encoding to be the default, why is your locale
set to "eo" and not to "eo.UTF-8"?
In general, Emacs prefers taking the locale's codeset from your
system's definitions, to avoid overriding the user's system setup. It
only applies default encoding when the locale doesn't specify the
codeset, or when a locale can support only a single codeset.

Are you saying that the Esperanto locale _must_ use UTF-8? If so,
why? AFAIK, ISO-8859-3 covers the Esperanto characters, so UTF-8 is
not the only possible codeset for Esperanto locales.

It looks like it’s `iso-latin-3', which is not working, since all my unicode characters get mangled. See [the screenshot in this question of mine on StackExchange.]

There is no eo.UTF-8 locale available to the system, as you can see [from the glibc documentation]. The “eo” locale is actually UTF-8, however. It’s interpreted as such just fine, across my whole system, except for in the emacs terminal, where it gets interpreted as `iso-latin-3'.

If you look at that glibc document, you’ll see that the “eo” locale is actually UTF-8. Unlike `en_US', which has variants like `en_US.UTF-8' which is UTF-8 and `en_US' which is ISO-8859-1, there is only `eo/UTF-8', i.e., `eo' which is UTF-8.

The characters in that post are supported by Latin-3, and I had no
problem saving them.

That's okay, but then all you need to say in Emacs is
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
Put that in your init file, and see if your problem with non-ASCII
characters is fixed.

I don't know why glibc did that, and glibc-supported systems are not
the only ones where we want to support Esperanto. So if the above
simple customization fixes your problem, I'd prefer not changing the
default for everyone.

It’s not about saving them, it’s about how they’re displayed. If the rest of my system correctly uses unicode for the `eo' locale, /because it’s a unicode locale,/ but emacs is the only one that guesses it should be Latin-3 instead (for no reason that I can find), then it’s emacs which incorrectly handling this locale.

If emacs were really following system settings, it would set the encoding to utf-8 without needing extra customization from the user, since `eo' is a UTF-8 locale. And incidentally, there’s no such locale as `eo.utf-8', from what I can tell.
> I don’t know why glibc did that, and glibc-supported systems are not

It’s not about changing the default for everyone, it’s about fixing an incorrect character encoding, making it so that emacs correctly respects the locale’s character set. There’s no reason to have the latin-3 character set, except for backwards compatibility, but that’s irrelevant in the case of Esperanto, since I know of no program, document, or anything else that would use latin-3 for Esperanto. Since the locale for Esperanto is a relatively new invention, it doesn’t have the same history of legacy character encodings as a language like English.
In fact, not even emacs seems to define it as such, judging from this line in `locale-language-names': `("eo" . "Esperanto")'. It just seems as if the author of that variable didn’t know what character set to assign, and left it blank.

I believe this is due to the fact that the text was saved in UTF-8,
and Emacs was trying to decode it as if it were in Latin-3.
Using the prefer-coding-system customization should fix that.

I disagree. I think your system doesn't tell Emacs enough to guess
correctly.

There's no evidence of "eo" being a UTF-8 locale, except what we see
in glibc. Which is just one library on just one OS.
> And incidentally, there’s no such locale as `eo.utf-8', from what I can tell.
OK. I didn't say there were, I just assumed there could be.

Emacs cannot know the system character set unless the system tells
that. The way to tell that is via the locale's codeset. If that is
impossible, the next best is for you to tell that to Emacs in your
init file. I don't understand why you insist on not using the
solution I proposed.
Please try the solution I proposed, and if it doesn't work, let's see
what else is needed. If you keep insisting on defaulting Esperanto to
UTF-8, I see now way to make any progress here.

That’s the problem. Emacs should decode UTF-8 as UTF-8, not Latin-3. The fact that it assumes a UTF-8 locale is in fact a Latin-3 locale, without any reasoning for that, is a problem.
> Using the prefer-coding-system customization should fix that.
The user shouldn’t have to customize an encoding system to have a UTF-8 locale be interpreted as UTF-8. A UTF-8 locale should be encoded as such, without needing to be told otherwise.

It does, though. The locale data is already there, which is why I only have this problem in Emacs, and nowhere else on my whole system. The problem is in this line from `locale-language-names'. Here’s what it says:
`("eo" . "Esperanto")'
Here’s what it should say:
`("eo" "Esperanto" utf-8)'
> There’s no evidence of “eo” being a UTF-8 locale, except what we see

The evidence is everywhere, in fact, across my whole system, and every other system I’ve used. And glibc is not just one library on one OS: it’s the reference data for locales across any UNIX-like or POSIX system.
Show me any other library on any other OS that has locale data that suggests that “eo” is anything other than UTF-8. In particular, show me a library that shows that the eo locale should be encoded as latin-3.

The system says that it’s a UTF-8 locale. It’s interpreted as a UTF-8 locale by every other program except for emacs. It’s only emacs that incorrectly assumes latin-3, and for no reason, as far as I can tell. That’s because it’s getting its locale/encoding information from `locale-language-names', which is incorrect, or at least incomplete.

You’re not proposing a solution, you’re proposing a workaround. Any other user with the “eo” locale will have this same problem, and they shouldn’t be expected to find this email thread, in order to find a special hack to have their system work as expected.
There’s no reason at all why Esperanto should be encoded in latin-3. It never has been, as far as I can tell, and it never well be, in latin-3, with the eo locale. If you can find any good reason why it should be in latin-3, I’m all ears, but as far as I can tell, this is a mistake.
Please keep in mind that /I’m trying to help improve emacs,/ by submitting a bug report about behavior in emacs that is incorrect and potentially causing problems for many users. Language like “I see now way to make any progress here” doesn’t extend any courtesy, any effort towards understanding this problem, or even any effort towards giving it the benefit of the doubt. It makes the bug reporting process unnecessarily adversarial, and, quite frankly, feels unprofessional.

Ideally, I agree. But in practice, we've found that goal unreachable

That's only correct for glibc systems, though, as I already explained.
I found no authoritative place on the Internet which would mandate
that the Esperanto locale should use or prefer UTF-8 as its encoding.
Once again, glibc is just one C library on just one OS.
If you can show me some authoritative source of information about this
locale which says it should use UTF-8, that could be a reason good
enough to make such an incompatible change. And we need good reasons
for such incompatible changes, because some users out there could have
configurations or applications that depend on previous behavior.

Would you please try it nonetheless?

No, it isn't a mistake. Latin-3 was introduced to cover Esperanto
(and some other languages). That's why the Emacs Esperanto locale
was configured to use it. It wasn't a random choice.

If it would work then Emacs would use UTF-8, but it doesn't.

Because it uses Latin-3, as it should.
As already explained, I see absolutely no convincing evidence anywhere
that Esperanto should prefer UTF-8 by default. If you know of any
authoritative source of such information, please point me to it.

If you mean that set-locale-environment should use that, please say
that explicitly. And then feel free to suggest a patch that does TRT
with all the convoluted logic and preferences there, so that we don't
disrupt the setup it took us decades to come up to, for the benefit of
a single obscure locale.

It's not for a single obscure locale, it's for all of them.

Does that mean you do suggest that set-locale-environment calls
locale-info? Or do you suggest something different?
Anyway, for all the other locales, the current code already works, and
works well. So we will be risking breakage while fixing one locale
that on one particular OS works less well.
But like I said: feel free to submit a patch that doesn't potentially
destroy everything we have in that setup. If the patch is safe
enough, I see no reason not to accept it.

Something like the below could be acceptable, if it solves the

I don't think it's possible to find a truly authoritative source of
information about an artificial language. One semi-authoritative source
is Bertilo Wennergren, who is (according to Wikipedia) a member of the
Esperanto Academy and "holds the post of director of the Academy's General
Dictionary section". He appears to be the expert on that matter (namely
computer encodings for Esperanto), and explains on his website that:
Latino 3 is made for Esperanto and for the Galician, Maltese and Turkish
languages. However, few computer programs support Latin 3, and some bodies
have even directly discouraged the use of Latin 3. The Turks currently
prefer the character code Latin 5 (ISO 8859-9) . Esperantists also
currently prefer and should prefer Unicode instead of Latin 3. [1,
translation from Google]
He also gives instructions on how to configure a GNU/Linux distribution
for Esperanto:
To be able to use Esperanto well in Linux, it is necessary that the system
uses a Unicode locale. Fortunately, more or less all Linux distributions
currently use Unicode locales by default. To check which character code
your system's locale uses, type the following command: "locale charmap".
If the answer appears "UTF-8" (that is the most commonly used code
representation of Unicode), then everything about character code in your
locale is already in order. [2, translation from Google]
Amusingly, at the bottom of that page one finds:
It is also possible to speak Esperanto in the powerful text editor
"Emacs", but I know nothing about "Emacs". I myself mainly use the Vim
editor. Here are instructions for installing and configuring Unicode Vim
7.
So it seems safer to assume that the coding system is UTF-8 when the
locale is "eo" (which IIUC is what the above suggested change does), and
to expect users who would not like that default to add
(prefer-coding-system 'iso-latin-3)
in their init file, than to assume ISO-8859-3 when the locale is "eo"
(which IIUC is what Emacs currently does), and to expect users who do not
like that default to add
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
in their init file.

Except that most other locales have "UTF-8" in their name when UTF-8
should be used, so the current logic selects the right encoding, without
consulting (locale-info 'codeset). For example, with the locale "mt_MT",
Emacs uses ISO-8859-3, and with the locale "mt_MT.UTF-8", Emacs uses
UTF-8.

That locale doesn't seem to exist on Debian systems, for instance:

Sorry, I meant "eo" and "eo.utf8". You can try (after activating the "eo"
locale):
env LC_ALL=eo emacs -Q
env LC_ALL=eo.utf8 emacs -Q
and you'll see that in the latter case UTF-8 is used and in the former
Latin-3. You'd get the same result with LANG instead of LC_ALL.

Oh yes, indeed. So in fact you can use both "eo.utf8" (which is what
locale -a displays) or "eo.UTF-8".

If we were designing support for this locale today, we'd probably have
used UTF-8 as its default encoding. But this is not the case: this
locale with its data exists for many years, and I'd like to avoid
changing the default encoding if a better solution exists. Especially
since at this point it is not yet clear why this doesn't work on OP's
system, given the fact that locale.alias should have told Emacs what
encoding to use, before falling back on what we have in
language-info-alist. See also my other message.

It is not clear to me yet that we need to change the current
assumption, since on well-configured system the correct encoding
should be stated in locale.alias, in which Emacs looks before it falls
back to language-info-alist.

That was suggested, but rejected, because the system in question (or
maybe any GNU/Linux system?) doesn't have such a locale.
But AFAIU locale.alias should have told Emacs which encoding is
appropriate for "eo". Andreas asked the OP what does locale.alias say
about that, but I saw no response yet.
What does "grep ^eo /usr/share/X11/locale/locale.alias" say on your
system?

It's not completely the same, though: "eo.utf8" is a glibc-specific alias
of "eo.UTF-8", "eo.UTF-8" is the standard name. So I take back what I
said above, and the OP should indeed use "eo.UTF-8".

That was probably a misinterpretation of the OP. I'd bet that it would
work, even though, as Lars observed, the exact string "eo.UTF-8" does not
appear in /etc/locale.gen for example.

If Emacs relies on locale.alias, Latin-3 will be chosen. The "eo" locale
follows what other locales do, without ".UTF-8" the legacy encoding is
used. E.g. "en_US" is Latin-1 here but "en_US.UTF-8" is UTF-8, and
likewise "tr_TR" is Latin-9 but "tr_TR.UTF-8" is UTF-8.

Emacs looks in locale.alias before it uses the fallback info in

If this is what locale.alias says, doesn't it mean that the system
wants us to use Latin-3 by default for this locale? IOW, why does
nl_langinfo return a value that is different from what this file says?
Is that because locale.alias comes from X11, not from glibc?
In any case, unless we change the code in mule-cmds.el, as long as
locale.alias says the above, what we say in language-info-alist about
this locale doesn't matter. At least that's my reading of the code in
mule-cmds.el.

I guess so, yes, given that glibc only knows of one encoding for the "eo"

You are correct. I should have tried the suggested patch before. It has
no effect indeed, at least here.
I think the conclusion is that the OP should either set his locale to
"eo.UTF-8", or add (prefer-coding-system 'utf-8) in his init file.

I don't know, because anything that it could do would be backward
incompatible. What is clear is that, on reasonably modern systems, legacy
locales are not used anymore, and their use is discouraged (e.g. the
Debian installer does not present you with any legacy encoding, they
remain available but to activate them you need to edit the /etc/locale.gen
file manually). So perhaps Emacs could always assume UTF-8, and use
another encoding only when there are good reasons to do so (e.g. when
opening a file with a legacy encoding). The presence of the equivalence
eo / Latin-3 in locale.alias is IMO not a good enough reason.

There's also /usr/share/locale/locale.alias, but on GNU/Linux system to
which I have access it doesn't have any information for the eo or
Esperanto locales.

You mean, the patch I proposed in
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=57531#64? For that to
work, we need to make 'locale-info' pseudo-encoding override what
locale.alias file says, I presume.

The only change I could think of that is almost backward-compatible
(except for this single locale) is the one I posted, if we modify it
to also make the 'lang-info' pseudo-encoding override the locale.alias
file.

I have no idea what this kind of change could do. Maybe nothing,
maybe breakage across the board. Keep in mind that the default
encoding is used for stuff other than decoding text in files Emacs
visits, and also for some important tasks during startup.
I also think our encoding detection doesn't always succeed to discern
between UTF-8 and single-byte Latin-N encodings.

That file is obsolete: "This file is obsolete and is kept around for the
time being for backward compatibility. Nobody should rely on the names
defined here." Neither that file nor the X11 one is used by glibc.

Indeed, given that ATM locale-language-names is only consulted when
locale.alias says nothing (IIUC).

I have no idea either, I was thinking aloud. But what is clear (at least
to me) is that this change is inevitable at some point. UTF-8 has been
the default encoding almost everywhere for two decades or so, and that's
unlikely to change in the forseeable future. In that world we cannot
continue forever to let Emacs choose another encoding based on some
heuristics, because "nobody" expects that anymore. Unless there's a good
reason to do so, of course.

Message #145 received at 57531 <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
In my case, on NixOS, the system only supports glibc locales. [The nix configuration option for locales] says this:
List of locales that the system should support. The value “all” means that all locales supported by Glibc will be installed. A full list of supported locales can be found at <https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=localedata/SUPPORTED>.
And if you try to do it anyway, for instance, with this configuration:
┌────
│ i18n = {
│ defaultLocale = "eo.UTF-8";
│ supportedLocales = [ "eo.UTF-8/UTF-8" "eo/UTF-8" "en_US.UTF-8/UTF-8" ];
│ };
└────
you’ll end up getting an error like this:
Error: unsupported locales detected:
eo.UTF-8/UTF-8 \
You should choose from the list above the error.
The “list above the error” is the same list from [the full list of supported locales], and doesn’t include `eo.UTF-8' or `eo.utf-8'.
So on my system, at least, there is effectively no separate `eo.UTF-8' locale. Nor would you need one, since the `eo' locale is UTF-8.
FWIW, my system doesn’t have the obsolete X11 locale.alias file, and I don’t use X11.
But if there’s one thing I can ascertain, just from using my system, is that it works just as expected everywhere (terminals, other programs), and characters are displayed fine everywhere (e.g., in UTF-8, as they should be) /except in emacs/. The emacs terminal, especially, displays characters incorrectly.
Here’s the output of `locale charmap':
┌────
│ $ LANG=eo locale charmap
│ UTF-8
└────
So it seems to me transparently clear that the encoding for the `eo' locale is UTF-8, and yet somehow emacs has its own, separate opinions, which don’t seem to be based on fact.
Changing the default emacs encoding won’t break backwards compatibility so much as it will fix a long-standing mistake.

Well, "eo.UTF-8/UTF-8" is indeed not a supported locale. Why did you
include it in your configuration? "eo.UTF-8" (without a "/UTF-8") is
definitely supported by glibc. What do you get if you configure it like
this:
i18n = { defaultLocale = "eo.UTF-8"; };

Then I guess Emacs doesn't use it, which is why your suggested fix worked

Well, this is getting into the weeds a bit about NixOS, and isn’t really relevant here, but just to humor you, configuring it like that results in the same error. Look at [the documentation for supportedLocales] and [the documentation on defaultLocale], in particular their examples. “eo.UTF-8/UTF-8” is the way they want you to write that in `supportedLocales'. You can also [check out the way it’s implemented], which involves normalizing those locale strings such that they match the ones provided by glibc.

It’s an obsolete file, as has been pointed out upthread, so it’s not in use at all, period. And whether or not you use X11 has nothing to do with whether or not you use Debian. The fix I’m suggesting would work equally as well on Debian as NixOS, or any Linux-based system, since they use the same system for locales. But don’t take my word for it. Try it yourself.

If there’s a reason that Emacs needs to maintain its own locale/charset mapping, separate and different from that of the system, I’m all ears. But to me it looks unnecessary and causes errors, like the one I’m trying to report here.

Then it sounds like it's a NixOS bug. As I said, eo.UTF-8 is definitely a
valid locale, and is supported by glibc, so there is no reason that NixOS
should reject it just because it's not present in some text file. You can
try it:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>
#define CHECK(L) if (!setlocale (LC_ALL, L)) printf ("invalid locale %s\n", L);
int main ()
{
CHECK ("eo");
CHECK ("eo.UTF-8");
}

No, it's another one that is obsolete: /usr/share/locale/locale.alias is
obsolete, /usr/share/X11/locale/locale.alias is not, it has last been
updated on February 2nd. It is used at least by libx11 and by Emacs.
And no, the fix you suggested does not work on Debian. I tried it myself,
it has no effect whatsoever. When /usr/share/X11/locale/locale.alias is
present, the information it contains takes precedence over those in
locale-language-names.

You can also just type "locale -a", you will see two lines starting with
"eo":
eo
eo.utf8

LANG=eo ./src/emacs -Q
still says
current-locale-environment
"eo_XX.ISO8859-3"
This does work (with or without the patch):
LANG=eo.UTF-8 ./src/emacs -Q
current-locale-environment
"eo.UTF-8"
Anyway, re-skimming this thread, I think we have these points:
1) The "eo" environment should be in utf-8 -- all the indications seem
to point to that, except some outdated Debian files that nobody else
uses but Emacs.
2) Using eo.UTF-8 is a work-around that works fine.
3) Changing what Emacs does here might be disruptive to people that are
used to Emacs defaulting to Latin-3 for the "eo" locale.
So the question is whether Emacs should start doing the right thing as
1), or worry more about 3).
I'm leaning more towards 1), but I don't have a strong opinion.

It won't solve the problem if you have that X11 file on your system,
because we read it before we get to the code I changed.

But it requires the eo.UTF-8 locale to be available, AFAIU, and for
that reason somehow didn't work for the OP. I don't think I
understood why it didn't work for him. I still hope the OP will come
back and help us understand that.

If we think 2) will work for (almost) everyone, maybe the problem is
not serious enough to have to decide between two extremes?

And all this is extremely important, because that is the file the X
library and X input methods use to determine the real locale underlying
a locale name.
If an X input method specifies the locale "EO", then it is actually
referring to "eo_EO.ISO8859-3", whose coded charset is ISO8859-3.

X can have different ideas about locale names than the system C
library. (nl_langinfo)
Emacs must follow the X definition in order to decode keyboard input
correctly.

locale.alias is not an obsolete file. The X library always looks there
when resolving locale names.
If you do not use X Windows, then that file should not be there in the
first place.

Yes, that would be helpful. On this Ubuntu system, I just uncommented
the "eo" line in locale.gen and ran locale-gen, and that made both the
"eo" and "eo.UTF-8" locales available.

Yes, that's quite possible.
But this might also be an opportunity to stop parsing that apparently
outdated file X11 file completely...

/usr/share/locale/locale.alias may be an obsolete Debian file, but
/usr/share/X11/locale/locale.alias is not; the X library looks there to
resolve locales that come from many sources, including input methods.
That means if an input method asks for "EO", it really means
"eo_EO.ISO8859-3", and the text it generates will also be Latin-3.
If we make "eo" mean UTF-8, then that text will no longer be decoded
correctly.

The outdated file present on Debian systems is completely distinct from
the X11 file, which must be parsed if we want input methods to keep
working correctly.
It's used by every program that uses one of Xlib or XIM, which is just
about every GUI program in existence.

Actually that problem has been debugged: it's a NixOS bug. NixOS rejects
the locale to "eo.UTF-8" in its configuration files, even though
"eo.UTF-8" is a perfectly valid locale. It rejects it because the
"eo.UTF-8" string is not present in some text file (apparently the
"localedata/SUPPORTED" file from glibc).

Another similar example is the en_IL (English Israel) locale. X11's
locale.alias indicates that "en_IL" alone means "en_IL.ISO8859-1", yet
glibc provides only one encoding for "en_IL", namely "UTF-8".
To avoid such bugs, the most reasonable thing to do for users is to always
specify the encoding.

So I think the conclusion here is that after taking all the options into
consideration, we don't want to change anything on the Emacs side here,
both because of backwards compat issues, and the X encoding issues noted
by Po Lu.
I'm therefore closing this bug report.

Would it not be better if Emacs checked the LANG environment variable on
startup and warned the user when LANG does not specify an encoding? Like
this:

We could do that, but:
. issuing a warning doesn't solve the problem
. experience shows that warnings shown at startup time frequently go
unnoticed, since they might "drown in the sea" of the many messages
shown by startup (for example, I use desktop, which emits gobs of
messages when it restores a session)
So I'm not objected to having a warning, but an entry in PROBLEMS
would still be good.
Also:

I believe the accepted terminology for that is "codeset".
