We do want that test to run though, right?
I suspect that test line never worked reliably. The skip_test check at
the top guarantees that the collation named "en_US" exists, but that
doesn't mean that the OS understands the locale 'en_US'.
Perhaps we can change that line to use a similar trick as what's used
elsewhere in the file:
do $$
BEGIN
EXECUTE 'CREATE COLLATION ctest_det (locale = ' ||
quote_literal((SELECT collcollate FROM pg_collation WHERE
collname = ''en_US'')) || ', deterministic = true);';
END
$$;
The above may need some adjustment, but perhaps you can try it out?
Another option might be to use \gset to assign it to a variable, which
might be more readable, but I think it's better to just follow what the
rest of the file is doing.
