[proaudio] Question about locales (Ardour-based)

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/proaudio Archives ]


I don't know much about locales. My machine has had a problem with
them until yesterday when I *thought* maybe I had solved them. However
today when installing Ardour-2.7.1 I see if doing a lot of work
storing locale data for locales I don't want or need. Is this normal?

<SNIP>
mo_builder(["gtk2_ardour/ru_RU.mo"], ["gtk2_ardour/ru_RU.po"])
po_builder(["gtk2_ardour/it_IT.po"], ["gtk2_ardour/po/it_IT.po",
"gtk2_ardour/gtk2_ardour.pot"])
Updating gtk2_ardour/it_IT.po
..............................................................................................................Done
<SNIP>

I was attempting to set my machine up to handle the 3 listed American
English locales. Why does Ardour (and possibly other programs) write
all this locale stuff to disk if it isn't intended to be used? I.e. -
do I still have a locale problem I need to clean up?

lightning ~ # locale -a
C
POSIX
en_US
en_US.iso88591
en_US.utf8
lightning ~ #

Thanks,
Mark
