Me too -- or maybe I should say "moi aussi". I've tried to prevent the installation of many many unneeded megabytes of translation files in /usr/share/locale/* but I've never succeeded. ATM I have 101MB of *.mo translation files in /usr/share/locale even though I deleted all of them less than a month ago. I unset the 'nls' useflag in the hope it would solve the problem, but no joy. #env | grep L.NG LINGUAS= ALL_LINGUAS= LANG=en_US.UTF8 LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF8 #locale LANG=en_US.UTF8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF8" LC_COLLATE=C LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF8" LC_ALL= Please apply cluestick with vigor... Thanks.
