[Bug 1449144] Re: Locales are not removed on uninstalling a language

 

I have verified it based on the filesize. With only "language-pack-
gnome-de" installed and executing "locale-gen --purge" the file have a
size of 3 MiB. Additionally installing language-pack-gnome-fr and
executing "locale-gen --purge" causes it to have a size of 4.2 MiB. But
removing language-pack-gnome-fr (with the command "apt-get autoremove
--purge language-pack-gnome-fr") causes it to still have a size of 4.2
MiB while "locale -a" does not list the locales of language-pack-gnome-
fr. Executing "locale-gen --purge" in this state causes the file to be
cleaned by having a size of 3 MiB again.
