I use apt-localepurge on a couple of systems with small hard disks. Those are server-type machines that don't need any user access (besides maintenance from a sysadmin). Advantage: you win some disk space. Disadvantage: it's not easily reversible. If you later decide to add another locale, you'll have to reinstall (almost) every package on your system. My advice: don't bother with it unless you're really short on hard disk space. A hard disk is relatively cheap these days, but for older machines this can be an issue. -- G. ``Iggy'' Geens - ICQ: #64109250 Home: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Work: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> WWW: http://users.pandora.be/guy.geens/ `I want quality, not quantity.
