(This bug is a bit annoying, as it is preventing gnome-language-selector
from doing it's automatic install thing.)

According to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=448878 :
" since a few versions already, enigmail does include the localization
  files itself, making thus enigmail-locales not needed anymore,
  therefore, please remove enigmail-locales from the archive. "

And a quick inspection of the Ubuntu enigmail source package indeed
reveals a number of (I guess) pretty complete translations. All
languages that had separate XPIs shipped in enigmail-locales before have
been included. Two quick tests show these localizations in action with
just the enigmail package.

Considering that the current enigmail-locale-XX packages just cannot work in 
lucid (not only the binary package dependencies are too strict, the 
dependencies of the included XPIs are also), were not translated via launchpad 
anyhow, and the existing translations have moved already, I propose the 
following way forward:
 1. Use this bug to track the removal of enigmail-locale-XX (and src: 
enigmail-locales) from lucid and maverick. Not sure what the Ubuntu process is 
for this.
 2. De-dup bug #588254 and update language-selector in lucid to no longer try 
installing enigmail-locale-XX.
 3. If new user contributed translations ever appear, just update the enigmail 
package.

Thoughts ?
