[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

Ah sorry for imprecision, I was indeed only referring to the apt bits.

Title:
  please filter /usr/share/locales when creating minimized images

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In a discussion around image sizes it came up that our images still have locales in
    /usr/share/locales

  Since my words seem to be misleading I'm quoting Steve on this:
  "ok, now I see what you mean about locales. yes, since we do not support non-English locales in the minimized images, we should also filter out the apt translations from /usr/share/locales. Please file a bug on livecd-rootfs for this."

  ^^ this bug here :-)

  Late on mwhudson said - "All done now"
  But I wasn't sure if that also included the locales.

  Better an extra bug that is quickly closed than one we forgot to fix.
