> Description:
The Makefile for localedata subdirectory uses chroot(1) during
installation process which makes the process fail.
> How-To-Repeat:
Issue:
make -C localedata install_root=/var/tmp/glibc-2.0.95-root install-locales
in the root source directory from a non-root account.
> Fix:
Here is an example patch that fixed the problem for me.
