We've added support for some locales into the rootfs. There are quite a
few locales, of which we don't know if we need to officially support them.
Our current list, is from a consumer level list of *most used* locales.

Please feel free to review this commit
<https://github.com/cloudfoundry/stacks/commit/748cb604ef55f3eeb334d960f496661b58ec50ca>.
We've made it explicit what locales are supported.

With these changes, we've been able to make the PHP `gettext` extension
work with the example. It has been added to our test suite
<https://github.com/cloudfoundry/php-buildpack/tree/develop/cf_spec/fixtures/php_app_testing_locale>
for future support.

Let us know if you need anything else.

Kind Regards,

JT

Unfortunately, the apt-buildpack only works for installing staging-time
dependencies, and not runtime dependencies.

It could be made to work, but the core buildpacks team simply have not
done so because nobody has asked (yet). ;)

I agree the inclusion of the lang pack into linuxfs2 seems best option.

I'm wondering though whether a temporary workaround could be to install
the "locales" debian package using apt-buildpack [1] (no sudo needed) and
combine it with php buildpack using the multi buildpack [2] ? I was
planning to test that for another purpose but had not the chance yet. I'm
interested in hearing the outcome.

Hi.

Thanks to you, I understood why i18n by gettext didn't work on CF.
Certainly, the language pack "ja_JP.utf8" only exists in my local
machine..

Anyway, we're glad to hear that the debian package "locales" will be
added
to the rootfs.
It will resolve this issue and then we will be able to manage i18n by
gettext extension on CF.


Thanks a lot.

Hiroaki UKAJI
