Re: How many people need locales?

I stand corrected. I've already been bashing myself because I wrote
Belgia (that's how it's written in Finnish but certainly not in
English). 

I feel that the user should be able to choose how locales are set
up. For example, most Finnish experienced users want only LC_CTYPE
set. LANG="fi_FI" is feels simply horrible but Linux user base is
no more only experienced users so many people disagree. I think that
it would be acceptable to do this after reboot of the install.
