I upload xlib-locale-ru-ru-utf8 package to AUR again.

I do not move it to community, because I hope this bug will be fixed soon...

Is it just libx11 with the patch that I removed because I thought it was merged upstream?
The changelog states that UTF8 is the default now for russian locales, don't know why they would switch it while it isn't supported...

May be it is default, but still broken :)

It is just link to en_US.UTF-8

You may check upstream by locale/ru_RU.UTF-8 directory presence...
