Bug Description

This package seems to install a file (unity-lens-applications.mo) in /usr/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES/ instead of /usr/share/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES, where locale files ought to be according to filesystem hierarchy standard policy.

(unity-lens-files has the same bug)

I am on xenial amd64.

Any chance we can get this accepted as a bug. This path /usr/locale/ is very annoying as it creates a new directory in /usr/, that only these packages are using, and interrupts tab-completion for those of us who navigate our filesystem regularly.
