Only ship locale definitions that the user can select in the Greeter
Originally created by @intrigeri on #17139 (Redmine)
While reviewing #17132 (closed), it occurred to me that with #16095 (closed), we’ve
restricted the user’s choice wrt. which locale they can login with. But
we still install locales-all. Chances are that this includes a large
amount of data that cannot be used anymore, so presumably we should:
- either stop installing
locales-alland instead use the infrastructure provided by thelocalespackage to generate locale definitions for the locales we make available - or keep installing
locales-all, but delete — via a chroot hook — the locale definitions that cannot be used
But this will increase complexity of our build system, so it would be nice to start with the cheapest possible PoC that can tell us how much this change would shrink our ISO/USB images by. And then we’ll know if it’s worth it.
