** Description changed:

+ [Justification]
+ Improving the fitness for purpose of Ubuntu minimal images by continuing to 
remove unused files is appropriate for a livecd-rootfs SRU.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ 1. Verify that there are no autopkgtest regressions.
+ 2. Generate a minimal tarball in launchpad (but do NOT publish to 
cdimage.u.c!)
+ 3. Download the tarball and verify no files under /usr/share/locales are 
included.
+ 4. Chroot to the tarball.
+ 5. Run 'unminimize' and confirm that the command succeeds.
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ The unminimize command might break in some unforeseen corner case.  But this 
code has already landed in devel and there have been no complaints so far.
+ 
+ 
+ [Original description]
  In a discussion around image sizes it came up that our images still have 
locales in
-   /usr/share/locales
+   /usr/share/locales
  
  Since my words seem to be misleading I'm quoting Steve on this:
  "ok, now I see what you mean about locales. yes, since we do not support 
non-English locales in the minimized images, we should also filter out the apt 
translations from /usr/share/locales. Please file a bug on livecd-rootfs for 
this."
  
  ^^ this bug here :-)
  
  Late on mwhudson said - "All done now"
  But I wasn't sure if that also included the locales.
  
  Better an extra bug that is quickly closed than one we forgot to fix.
