Serhiy, in your patch you seem to have special treatment for the devanagari modifier: + # Devanagari modifier placed before encoding. + return code, modifier.split('.')[1] Probably because of 'ks_in@devanagari': 'ks_IN@devanagari.UTF-8', 'sd': 'sd_IN@devanagari.UTF-8', in the locale_alias dictionary. But I think these two lines are just wrong, this mistake is inherited from the locale.alias from X.org where the python locale_alias comes from. glibc: mfabian@ari:~ $ locale -a \| grep ^sd sd_IN sd_IN.utf8 sd_IN.utf8@devanagari sd_IN@devanagari mfabian@ari:~ $ locale -a \| grep ^ks ks_IN ks_IN.utf8 ks_IN.utf8@devanagari ks_IN@devanagari mfabian@ari:~ $ The encoding should always be before the modifier.

Serhiy, in your patch you seem to have special treatment for
the devanagari modifier:

+                # Devanagari modifier placed before encoding.
+                return code, modifier.split('.')[1]

Probably because of 

       'ks_in@devanagari':                     'ks_IN@devanagari.UTF-8',
       'sd':                                   'sd_IN@devanagari.UTF-8',

in the locale_alias dictionary.

But I think these two lines are just wrong, this mistake
is inherited from the locale.alias from X.org where the
python locale_alias comes from.

glibc:

mfabian@ari:~
$ locale -a | grep ^sd
sd_IN
sd_IN.utf8
sd_IN.utf8@devanagari
sd_IN@devanagari
mfabian@ari:~
$ locale -a | grep ^ks
ks_IN
ks_IN.utf8
ks_IN.utf8@devanagari
ks_IN@devanagari
mfabian@ari:~
$ 

The encoding should always be *before* the modifier.
