The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      14112
Logged by:          Georg Kahest
Email address:      georg.kahest@internet.ee
PostgreSQL version: 9.4.7
Operating system:   Debian Jessie
Description:

It seems that sorting v and w with et_EE locate is broken (other chars seem
to be okey):

select name COLLATE "et_EE" from test order by name;
        name
--------------------
 a1.ee
 vvbwjbln7.ee
 wwvl8.ee
 wxxezi6lkaq7eoi.ee
 vyz.ee
(5 rows)


select name COLLATE "en_US" from test order by name;
        name
--------------------
 a1.ee
 vvbwjbln7.ee
 vyz.ee
 wwvl8.ee
 wxxezi6lkaq7eoi.ee
(5 rows)

That does look odd.  If that's not the correct way to sort Estonian,
then that should probably be reported to the Debian glibc maintainers
(or maybe the glibc project).  Here's a Debian Jessie box
demonstrating that behaviour without any help from PostgreSQL:

munro@yoga:~/junk$ locale -a | grep et_EE
et_EE
et_EE.iso885915
et_EE.utf8
munro@yoga:~/junk$ cat input
a1.ee
vvbwjbln7.ee
vyz.ee
wwvl8.ee
wxxezi6lkaq7eoi.ee
munro@yoga:~/junk$ LC_COLLATE=et_EE.utf8 sort < input
a1.ee
vvbwjbln7.ee
wwvl8.ee
wxxezi6lkaq7eoi.ee
vyz.ee
munro@yoga:~/junk$ LC_COLLATE=en_US.utf8 sort < input
a1.ee
vvbwjbln7.ee
vyz.ee
wwvl8.ee
wxxezi6lkaq7eoi.ee

What happens if you replace the dot in each string with a single 'x'
character, Georg? Does the sort order look correct to you then?

I ask because I suspect that this might be the same strcoll() bug I
describe here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1320356

(In particular, see my remarks on Austria and Germany.)

The report is against 9.4, though, so strcoll shouldn't matter.

No change here.  This system has locales-all ("GNU C Library:
Precompiled locale data") package version 2.19-18+deb8u4 (and same
libc6).

munro@yoga:~/junk$ LC_COLLATE=et_EE.utf8 sort < input

vvbwjbln7.ee
wwvl8.ee
wxxezi6lkaq7eoi.ee

munro@yoga:~/junk$ LC_COLLATE=et_EE.utf8 sort < input2
a1xee
vvbwjbln7xee

It shouldn't matter that it doesn't agree with strxfrm(), which is the
most important thing, but not the only thing. I think that it would be
interesting to know if this is a strcoll() problem. I have no
intention of pursuing a "fix" from the glibc people.

Same result on a CentOS box.  I think the OP should probably write to
bug-glibc-locales@gnu.org.

Hello,

Indeed the problem seems to be related to to glibc itself handling it
incorrectly.

Thank you for your time, ill report the bug to glibc.
