It's not me, but the glibc that requires that. No idea why. If someone can find a way to use the translation API of the glibc without having to install the corresponding locale files, it will be a great help for everyone. > On the other hand even if the system locale is really necessary in order > to use a particular translation, it would be nice if the Gambas > application packager could lookup the current available translations and > add the corresponding system locales packages to the generated > application package as a "suggested" ones. Indeed. The problem is that all locale packages are different between distributions, and the way they are named too. I must create a list of all locale packages for each language, and each distributions supported by the IDE (Mandriva, SuSE, Fedora, Ubuntu, Slackware). It is an huge job I cannot make alone!
