The new locale en_IL is added to glibc.
But there is no key for this in the locale alias mapping.
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=glibc.git;h=146ffc146fe3bf97cd3bc1a649f1ffa8acfa4a0d
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/locale.py#L850
The locale in latest Ubuntu 18.04 contains en_IL as valid locale, but Python cannot resolve this.
This makes test failure in pandas.

This is a duplicate of bpo-20087. The patch that adds an alias for en_IL was merged, but then reverted.
Licht-T commentedon May 5, 2018
en_IL has significant impact because this is English locale and now supported in the latest Ubuntu. Is there any plan to add only en_IL?
serhiy-storchaka commentedon May 5, 2018
This should be discussed in bpo-20087.
