Python internationalization, local setting independent

Question

I need the return of a strftime() call being in a language different at the one set on my local machine/OS. Is that possible to choose the language of the return?

Answer 1

For solid i18n/L10N, usable by a server which must serve different localizations within the same run, I keep recommending PyICU, the Python layer on top of ICU, the International Components for Unicode open-source package. Other approaches tend to be pretty limited and fragile:-(.
