Package: localepurge Version: 0.7.3.10 Followup-For: Bug #725316 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256
I ran into this issue on an initial install. The contents of the file is quite good and it would've explained to me why installing localepurge didn't purge any not-needed locales. I added that experience to bug #780889, which provided a workaround which entails running `dpkg-reconfigure localepurge` and *then* the file was available and then I learned why localepurge didn't purge any locales, while the package description and the deb-wiki page suggested that it would do exactly that. I do think the dpkg-path solution is great and maybe should be included in the (normal) `locales` package? As I said in the other bug report, I think installing 700+ MB of locale files *which I don't need* is a bit excessive. - -- 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.
