| 9 | Yes, but that may not be the problem. I have just 2 locales requested, |
| 10 | but /etc/share/locale/ contains 90 MB of material. |
| 11 | A quick look suggests that most of it is in subdirs LC_MESSAGES , |
| 12 | wh seem to come from emerges at various dates; |
| 13 | they are binary, so I don't know what they were reporting. |
| 14 | Even under /usr/share/locale/en_US , which should show my 2 locales, |
| 15 | there are only such messages. The locales do seem to work. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Can anyone explain what is going on ? |
