Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software
While investigating possible causes for bug#173128 (libgtk1.2), I found out that locales
directories are not generated as /usr/lib/locale/<xx_XX@foo> in locales 2.3.1. Instead,
a huge /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive file whose size is proportional to the number of
locales requested in /etc/locales.gen is generated.
This breaks _all_ gtk1.2 applications. The bug is reproducible on i386 and hppa.

It's not bug as Daniel said.
I close this bug.
