[moved to -arch] Well. Then I have to rehash $subj issue again. There's important point with removing old (currently unsupported, or correctly to say -- partly supported) locales. They should be removed at installworld stage. We have to define and implement infrastructure to remove old files at installworld stage. But I think there're already someone who has it implemented. Otherwise I'll spend some time, write and commit it. On Tue, Jun 10, 2003 at 02:01:05AM -0700, Doug Barton wrote: > On Tue, 10 Jun 2003, Alexey Zelkin wrote: > > > Hmm... I like this idea.

If you need users to remove files, you need to educate them > about the need to do so. We can't educate and force everybody to do right things. And since we can take care people from making mistakes - we should to do it, IMHO.
