Subject: locale.alias refers to non-generated locales

Package: locales
Version: 2.2.1-1
Severity: normal
With the current locale scheme, if I have not explicitly generated any
locales, /etc/locale.alias refers to many locales that haven't been
generated. The result is that "locale -a" mostly lists a bunch of locales
(bokmal, etc) that don't work. I'm not experienced in locale use, but I
find this confusing.
I guess the solution is either to avoid listing aliases that point to
non-generated locales; or to build the locale.alias file in locale-gen.
Thanks,
Andrew
