Previous fix mapped "Norwegian (Bokmål)" locale, which contains a non-ASCII character, to the pure ASCII alias "norwegian-bokmal". However, it turns out that more recent versions of the CRT library, in particular MSVCR110 (Visual Studio 2012), changed the behaviour of setlocale() so that if you pass "norwegian-bokmal" to setlocale, it returns "Norwegian_Norway". That meant trouble, when setlocale(..., NULL) first returned "Norwegian (Bokmål)_Norway", which we mapped to "norwegian-bokmal_Norway", but another call to setlocale(..., "norwegian-bokmal_Norway") returned "Norwegian_Norway". That caused PostgreSQL to think that they are different locales, and therefore not compatible. That caused initdb to fail at CREATE DATABASE. Older CRT versions seem to accept "Norwegian_Norway" too, so change the mapping to return "Norwegian_Norway" instead of "norwegian-bokmal". Backpatch to 9.2 like the previous attempt. We haven't made a release that includes the previous fix yet, so we don't need to worry about changing the locale of existing clusters from "norwegian-bokmal" to "Norwegian_Norway". (Doing any mapping like this at all requires changing the locale of existing databases; the release notes need to include instructions for that).

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
