Could you please elaborate a little bit on this ?
- You say that 3.23.23 tables should be repaired
- The manual says that 3.23.22 tables should be repaired
- I feel concerned about this statement from the manual: "Changed sort
order for latin1 as it was before 3.23.22"
Indeed, as it was discussed on this list, the following characters are
compared as equal with 3.23.23:
A a À Á Â Ã Ä Å à á â ã
ä å
However, with 3.23.22, only the following ones are equal:
A a À Á Â Ã à á â ã
Are you telling us that 3.23.24 is getting back to the 3.23.22 behaviour ?
What is the rationale behind the decision that "a" would be equal to "â",
but not equal to "ä" ?
