locales vs. locales-all



Hi folks

Currently the legacy Azure and at least some of the OpenStack images
install locales-all.

While installing locales-all is pretty handy and avoids a lot of
problems, I realized that is comes with a huge drawback: it makes the
images a lot larger (230MB uncompressed and over 100MB compressed).  It
makes them so much larger that building images comparable with legacy
Azure build process gets problematic on salsa.

What should we do about that?

Regards,
Bastian
