Gettext only returns english

I've figured it out - thanks to all who sent ideas my way.  Im mailing the
list in the hopes that someone with the same problem can find it in the
archives.

I was under the impression that it didn't matter what languages were
installed on the local box, and the language folders under /locale could be
named anything (as long as you told the script what they were).  Apparently
this is not the case.

I had installed the languages on my server last week in an effort to solve
my problem, but it didn't work then either.  I did an "localedef
--list-archive" to see all the languages installed, and I noticed that they
all had extensions for their charset (either utf-8 or isoxxx).  I remember
reading somewhere online that people were putting these specific extensions
in their scripts as well, so I gave it a shot.

Im sure I tried it before, but apparenly not correctly.  Regardless, its
working now with the following line:

setlocale(LC_ALL, 'de_DE.UTF-8');

So, if you are having the same problems I was, list all the languages you
have on your computer, and try using the exact phrase that its installed as.

Thanks for your help and ideas,

Wil Clouser
