Hello list,

I have noticed today this folder on my laptop: /usr/locale. It
contains multiple subfolders-languages with LC_MESSAGES.

I wonder why these LC_MESSAGES are situated there, and not at
/usr/share/locale, as on my other machine with Gentoo installed.

Equery says that /usr/locale belongs to gnome-icon-theme 3.6.2. But
the same gnome-icon-theme 3.6.2 didn't create /usr/locale on my other
machine, created /usr/share/locale instead. Reemerging
gnome-icon-theme didn't help.

Gentoo Localization HowTo says: "The locales and their data are part
of the system library and can be found at /usr/share/locale on most
systems". I can't figure out why the laptop hasn't been included in
"most systems".

Which options related to locales may I have configured otherwise? In
my opinion, installations are near equal. Arch - i686, locale - utf-8,
desktop - Openbox. The world file is almost the same; some
laptop-specific packages added. The only difference that I remember: I
installed many packages on the laptop in another order.
