Bug Description
Repurposing this bug as a Feature Freeze exception request to merge langpack-locales into glibc, and make locales-all available in the process. Working on getting that all done and properly tested by tonight, but if this doesn't make it, it'll happen in early 16.10 instead.
[Original Report]
Hi,
Debian provides a 'locales-all' package, which is very convenient to ensure all locales are available, and installs very quickly.
It's particularly handy when providing i18n'd web applications (e.g. that use php-gettext).
As they may be accessed by visitors of all supported languages, rather than documenting how the server administrator should enable a list of 10-15 languages by reconfiguring 'locales', the packager can just add 'locales-all' to the Recommends or Depends.
See for instance the FusionForge package in Debian (https:/
Cheers!
Sylvain
