The manpage does also say that it compiles only locales if the source
files have changed. Based on this recompiling already up-to-date locales
after another locale has been installed seems to be a bug.

Title:
  Installing of a new language causes that other locales are registered
  as outdated

Status in langpack-locales package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 15.04 with locales 2.13+git20120306-19 and if I'm
  installing a new language (in this case language-pack-gnome-fr) to an
  already existing language (in this case language-pack-gnome-de) I'm
  noticing that the next call of locale-gen will update the old locales
  even if they got already updated directly before installing the new
  language.
