Created attachment 38116 [details] [review]
add aliases for nb_NO.utf8 and nn_NO.utf8

A while ago Norwegian no_NO was split into two locales
reflecting the two common languages in use now in modern Norway:
nb_NO and nn_NO.

nls/locale.alias.pre needs to be updated to reflect this:
it is missing aliases for nb_NO.utf8 and nn_NO.utf8.

(Desktop such as fedora default to .utf8 locales
not the preferred .UTF-8 and this can then break for
example input in Norwegian when using X compose example
in GTK apps.)

The attached patch adds the two missing aliases for Norwegian.

Pushed to git master for libX11 1.4.   Thanks for the patch, but please
use git format-patch instead of just git diff next time.

I would like to know too. ;-)
