grep-2.5.3 skips 1 test because cs_CZ.UTF-8 locale could not be installed

The localedef command above is obviously wrong, should be:

localedef -i cs_CZ -f UTF-8 cs_CZ.UTF-8

The above command works. When you don't have any cs_CZ* locale installed (the case described), two locales will be installed with the above command: cs_CZ and cs_CZ.utf8 (just localedef --list-archive to see the results). I put this command by this way, without ".UTF-8" at the end, to follow the pattern of the book, like the locale fa_IR install mentioned at chapter 6.9: localedef -i fa_IR -f UTF-8 fa_IR.

Indeed, the above command doesn't produce error messages. But it is wrong, because the cs_CZ locale must have the ISO-8859-2 charset. Check yourself with the following command:

LC_ALL=cs_CZ locale charmap

fa_IR is a special case because it is not supposed to have a non-UTF-8 counterpart.

The "LC_ALL=cs_CZ locale charmap" command just takes de "default" cs_CZ charmap installed, and in my case it showed UTF-8, because I installed cs_CZ locale by that way.
I installed all locations of glibc with the command "make localedata/install-locales" and I did that "locale" command to see the glibc default, and cs_CZ really have to be ISO-8859-2. So, you are right and I agree with you. The command need to be:

localedef -i cs_CZ -f UTF-8 cs_CZ.UTF-8

Another correction: If the locales installed by glibc at chapter 6 are there for the coverage of the other packages tests (because glibc was tested yet at that moment), I think it would be better to put this localedef command together with the other localedef commands at chapter 6.9.

Fixed in r8691.
