Those of them worked that had already been built until it stopped.  They
are built alphabetically and it stopped somwhere around `es_*'.


Another thing: when I just upgraded Barry's `shitbox' to the version
2.6.1-1 glibc packages, which also included upgrading the `locales-all'
package, then upgrading the latter one worked without the locking error
quoted above.  Have there been any changes in that area?

#v+
$ locale -a | sed -n '1,4p;5s%.*%...%p;$p'
C
POSIX
aa_DJ
aa_DJ.iso88591
...
zu_ZA.utf8
#v-
