As said by Erdal, Turkish currency is TRY, localedef needs to be
updated. But I do not know why locales generation hangs, this
is not normal.

Right. IIRC I initially chose eo_XX to be compatible with Mandrake.
As explained in the changelog, I met Goto Masanori at debconf 5
and he told me that he prefers eo. I had no strong feeling about
this and switched to eo.

FWIW, ISO 3166 specifies that AA, QM-QZ and XA-XZ codes are reserved
for private use, this is why eo_XX may have a justification, at least
IMHO ;)
