Bug#753084: locales: wish it would take advantage of multiple cores
Package: locales
Version: 2.19-4
Severity: wishlist
The process of generating all locales takes a huge amount of time. It would be
good if it could run multiple processes to take advantage of multi-core
systems. Also it would be good if there was an option to generate one locale
for each language.
