Hi,
In the past we reached out to you about the PostgreSQL Windows
installer not having an option to modify the locale on installation,
resulting in failures during upgrades due to mismatched locale versions.
As a result you released installer version 15.13, which included a more
inclusive locale flag which solves our problem.
However, we recently noticed that when picking a locale starting with
"English", the value post installation will always be "English_United
States.1252".
For example, we installed using locale "English, United Kingdom" and
expected the locale value post installation to be "English_United
Kingdom.1252". However, we saw it was installed with the "English_United
States.1252" locale instead.
We then tested multiple different locales and found this issue repeats only
when choosing locales starting with "English".
Is this the intended behavior? If not, we would appreciate a fix to this
issue as it's blocking us from upgrading our machines holding older
PostgreSQL versions.
Thank you!
