I was planning to use the alternatives system to avoid that kind of interaction. That way, dpkg-reconfigure locales would be the same as dpkg-reconfigure locales-all. In this case priorities shouldn't be based on popularity contest, as suggested on some discussions. Oh my, I completely forgot belocs. >> In order to save space, similar files are currently hardlinked (by >> localedef). When the package is generated, one has to hardlink >> (or symlink) compressed files instead, this is quite tricky. Now I see what you mean. I didn't thought of compressing single files. My idea was: - Delete everything under /usr/lib/locales-all - Uncompress the selected languages, usually one or two (in my case only one) from this big archive that has all locales compressed. - When you find a link, uncompress the real file and try again This means ~300KB per locale. If this works I wouldn't mind the extra space used by the compressed locale. Bye. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
