+The locales-all package contains precompiled locale files.
+They cannot be put under /usr/lib/locale, otherwise they would
+interfere with the locales package and could be removed by
+locale-gen.  They are shipped in /usr/lib/locales-all, and
+there are two solutions to make use of them:
+  1. Either set LOCPATH=/usr/lib/locales-all in your environment,
+     for instance by running (as root)
+       update-locale LOCPATH=/usr/lib/locales-all
+  2. Or copy locale definitions into /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive
+     by running
+       localedef --add-to-archive /usr/lib/locales-all/*
+     But the locales package will overwrite /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive
+     so this solution works well only if the locales package is not
+     installed.
