            Bug ID: 47853
           Summary: Allow testing in any locale on Wine VMs
           Product: Wine-Testbot
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: fgouget at codeweavers.com
      Distribution: ---

Because Wine VMs run Unix, running a test in a locale is a simple matter of
setting $LANG (*), creating a new WinePrefix for good measure, and running the
test normally.

This does assume that the relevant locales have been configured before hand
which is an easy one-time task when setting up the VM.

Wine VMs already have a list of missions they perform for wine-devel patches
from which we can derive a list of locales to offer on the 'Submit job' page
(see bug 47852). But we would not want to run every patch through every
possible locale as this would take too much time (there are dozens of locales).

But extra locales could be included in the 'Submit job' page to allow debugging
of these locales.

(*) And $LC_ALL too???
