Bug#932644: reconfigure writes to /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive
Package: locales
Version: 2.28-10
Severity: minor
Hi,
reconfiguring the locales package updates the file
/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive.
I am not sure whether this is allowed by policy, hence severity: minor.
Maybe this file would better be in /var.
Greetings
Marc
