Thanks, I'm only really concerned about chapter 6 at the moment. I seem
to remember somebody (Alexander, perhaps) suggesting that the correct
method is to install the required locales, which for me equates to the
minimal locales. I'll go with all locales if that turns out to be the
official recommendation.
I did recommend installing only wanted locales, but that's a workaround for
BLFS bug. The bug is that GDM chooses (not well supported) UTF-8 locales in
preference to non-UTF-8 ones if one selects a non-default language on the
login screen. Since there will be a branch that adds some patches to address
UTF-8 problems, this will become a non-issue for that branch.
Thanks for the clarification. I'll build with all locales.
