I agree, duplicating them is a hideous waste. > It seems like the language packs should only be included in the > pool, not the squashfs image, and installed on demand. I disagree. They should only be in the squashfs image, so that you can actually _use_ the live system in your local language. > This also adds to the installation time significantly ( like 400% > increase - it is ridiculous ) since it has to remove all of the > language packs from the target system after copying the squashfs. That's right, but I'd rather fix that. ubiquity could skip /usr/share/locale-langpack/[everything but the selected locale]/ during copy, then it should be a lot faster?
