Bug#553678: locales: Language soup in Nowegian locale

Depending on the target group, I believe it should be kept.  Those who
do not understand english, will most likely be able to understand
Danish and Swedish.  Those who do understand English find it slightly
annoying to see the Danish and Swedish texts when the Norwegian
translation is missing.

So my judgement is that for those that really need the translations,
it is better to fall back to Danish and Swedish than to fall back to
English.
