pull it from cooker. Unless cheapbytes does cooker CDs (which I don't think 
they do) it's prob. 7.2, which uses the old version. Check the changelog 
(rpmfind.net is good for that) and look for the "updated to new locales 
config" or something along those lines.

Why do you bother to select a language during install if it still tries
to
install other language files?

easy thing to understand
I Speak US English and have my setup for same but if a friend of mine
Minji wants to use my setup she might want to (since she speaks mostly
Korean)
want Korean or if i had Pixel at my computer He might want to use
French.
And if i remember right some of the LIBC stuff includes all supported
languages.

SPEAKING OF WHICH to run the update cd (from retail beta to release)
i had to install the hacklibc rpm from the contrib cd. When i do a
kernel compile
i get a horde of messages about " not being able to set the location
using default
location" anybody know why?

There may be a problem between glibc and locales. If you've installed 
glibc-2.2, it confilicts with the locales package that ships with 7.2. 
Locales were reimplemented in glibc 2.2, and weren't backward-compatible 
with 2.1 (not being a C programmer, this is how I understood it), but there 
wasn't a requirement in the package to install the updated locale packages. 
Perl (which is used heavily during compilation) uses locales in glibc and 
complains if they aren't set up right. Upgrading all the locale packages 
should do the trick, if that indeed is what the problem is.
