Introduction to ps-locale-en_GB-15.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512
This cryptographic hash-verified software package delivers full British English (en_GB) localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 15.0 environments. Designed to comply with UK Government Digital Service (GDS) accessibility standards, it implements ISO/IEC 8859-15 character encoding for administrative interfaces and call detail records (CDRs). The SHA512 checksum ensures file integrity during deployment, adhering to Cisco’s Secure Development Lifecycle (SDL) and FIPS 180-4 cryptographic guidelines.
Compatible exclusively with CUCM 15.0 SU2 and later, this build (version 15.0.1.2000-1) resolves date formatting inconsistencies (DD/MM/YYYY vs MM/DD/YYYY) in collaborative tools like Cisco Webex Control Hub and Jabber Messaging.
Key Features and Technical Enhancements
-
Regional Compliance
- Implements UK Companies Act 2006 requirements for £ currency symbols in billing reports
- Supports 24-hour time format with UTC+0 timezone synchronization
-
Linguistic Precision
- Localized spellcheck dictionaries for British English variants (e.g., “colour” vs “color”)
- Enhanced postcode validation in location-based emergency services (999/112 routing)
-
Security Protocols
- SHA512 checksum validation prevents supply chain tampering during OVA deployments
- Fixes CVE-2025-1188 (locale-based memory leak) present in 14.x English localization packs

Critical Notes:
- Requires 7GB additional storage for extended linguistic databases
- Incompatible with third-party SIP devices using ISO-8859-1 encoding
Deployment Limitations
-
Functional Constraints
- No automatic conversion between en_GB and en_US locale packs
- British English TTS requires separate license (L-CUCM-TTS-UK)
-
Migration Considerations
- Legacy en_US locale packs must coexist for audit log compatibility
- Cluster-wide service restart required post-installation
