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. -- Regards, Alex
