But that's exactly the problem. I tried installing the locale data files
after purging wg15-locale. But then neither perl nor tcsh (I didn't try
other) were able to load my locale correctly. If I keep wg15-locale in all
is fine.

This comes from both packages using different paths it seems. Just look at
the listing:

wg15-locale:
/usr/share/locale/de_DE
/usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES
/usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/SYS_LC_MESSAGES
/usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_CTYPE
/usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_COLLATE
/usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_MONETARY
/usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_NUMERIC
/usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_TIME

locales:
usr/share/i18n/locales/de_DE

And not just that. In the former de_DE is a directory. In the latter it's a
file.

Also David, locales does conflict and replace with localebin, but only
conflict with wg15-locale. Is that what you wanted?
