Description David Grant 2004-07-09 20:15:15 UTC
locale directory is massive, 162512 kilobytes to be exact.  What the heck do I need all these locales for?  Can the ebuild be made to just install whatever locales you plan on using?  Could a use flag be used for every locale?  Could the ebuild be split up?  Any ideas?
