Package: localepurge Version: 0.7.3.10 Followup-For: Bug #780889 X-Debbugs-Cc: kilob...@angband.pl
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 I recently ran into this problem too. I have 2 systems where `/usr/share/locale/` used 700+ MB, which I think is rather excessive, so I installed localepurge to get rid of most of it ... only to find out it didn't do that. I can also confirm that manually running `localepurge` did nothing initially as IMO the logical configuration you'd do when installing the package is to use path-exclude. Thirdly I can confirm that the workaround works, but it's a bit complicated and I did it wrong on 1 machine and thereby also removed the locales for nl* and en*. As I normally run Testing or Sid, I expect those to be restored when a package upgrade comes in. People using Stable may not be so 'lucky'. - -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages localepurge depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.82 ii locales 2.36-9 ii perl 5.36.0-7 ii procps 2:4.0.3-1 ii ucf 3.0043+nmu1 localepurge recommends no packages.
