Hey hey,
When I use the boost::locale::generator to initialise an std::locale the -סקס
sששtd::locale.name() always yields "*".

Examples:
...
boost::locale::generator 'gen;
std::locale loc = gen("en_US");
std::cout << loc.name();
...
output:
*

Whereas using the std::locale consסד'בtructor with const char * yields the proper
name:
...
std::locale loc("en_US");
std::cout << loc.name();סבש'ד
...
Output:
en_US

I am running on Arch Linux, with Boost version 1.69.0-2 (the latest version in
the official Arch package repositoy).

Is there a caveat I overlooked or is there another way around this behaviour?

One word of praise: the Boost locale library gave me the first pleasant
experience of using localisation. I love the interface and think it very
understandable even for a programmer of only mediocre level like myself. So:
thank you!

Best wishes,

Jeanette
