Package: perl-modules
Version: 5.10.0-19
Severity: normal

Hello,

perldoc Locale::Language says 

       ·   Currently just supports the two letter language codes - there are
           also three-letter codes, and numbers.  Would these be of any use to
           anyone?

Sure it would, else ISO wouldn't have defined them: all the countries
that do not have a two-letter code need them.

Samuel
