Package: locales
Version: 2.3.6-3
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I think it would be nice if, when installing standard "locales" in a system that
previously were using belocs-locales-data, the debconf selections from:

  belocs-locales-data/locales_to_be_generated
  belocs-locales-data/default_environment_locale

were automaticaly imported into the default locales template (and, of course,
unexistant locales were skipped).

This is useful for locales that used to be only in belocs.  When they're added
to standard "locales" package, users would want to migrate.

Would you like me to send a patch for this?

Oh, I'm sorry.  I looked through the scripts for "belocs-locales-data"
references, and couldn't find any, so I (wrongly) assumed these wouldn't be
imported at all.

I'm closing this bug.
