Why pass the buck here? It's not difficult to ignore that failure. In a technical sense, apt-localepurge is arguably at fault here; but apt-localepurge does a job that people want done, and no one else has proposed, much written, a simple alternative to it. At the very least, woody shouldn't release with this problem; since it's intractable to fix in apt-localepurge, and trivial here, why not fix it here? -- David Starner - [EMAIL PROTECTED] "It's not a habit; it's cool; I feel alive.
