Changed locale and localedef Commands
To enable smooth migration from PA to IPF, both PA and IPF locale
libraries and iconv methods need to exist on an Itanium-based system.
Directory Structure Changes
The current directory structure on 64-bit PA systems is:
/usr/lib/nls/loc/ # PA32 locale directory
/usr/lib/nls/loc/locales.1 # PA32 versioned 10.20 locale libraries
/usr/lib/nls/loc/locales.2 # PA32 versioned 11.10 locale libraries
/usr/lib/nls/loc/locales # Link to /usr/lib/nls/loc/locales.2
/usr/lib/nls/loc/methods.1 # PA32 versioned 10.20 locale methods
/usr/lib/nls/loc/methods.2 # PA32 versioned 11.11 locale methods
/usr/lib/nls/loc/methods # Link to /usr/lib/nls/loc/methods.2
/usr/lib/nls/iconv/methods.1 # PA32 versioned 10.20 iconv method
# libraries
/usr/lib/nls/iconv/methods.2 # PA32 versioned 11.11 iconv method
# libraries
/usr/lib/nls/iconv/methods # Link to /usr/lib/nls/iconv/methods.2
/usr/lib/nls/loc/pa20_64/ # PA64 locale directory

New directories have been created for 32-bit and 64-bit IPF locale
libraries, which co-exist with PA libraries. The new directories are:
/usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux32/
/usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux32/locales.1 # IA-64 native 32 bit locales
/usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux32/locales # Link to /usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux32/locales.1
/usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux32/methods.1 # IA-64 native 32 bit methods
/usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux32/methods # Link to /usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux32/methods.1
/usr/lib/nls/iconv/hpux32/methods.1 # IA-64 native 32 bit iconv libraries
/usr/lib/nls/iconv/hpux32/methods # Link to
