Here's the beginning of 'dpkg -L xlib6g' output: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/locale.alias /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/locale.dir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/compose.dir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/C /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/C/XLC_LOCALE ... If you have to, download the xlib6g and install it manually with dpkg. When I first had these problems, I got the locale dir out of the old 'xbase' package (when it was ~2.0 meg). 'xlib6g' definitely has what you need. -- Ed C.
