Hi guys, As it was discussed with Joey and other developers at the Oldenburg meeting, if Debian is going to offer automated localization (at least for X) in the form of the localization-config package, then its dependency upon perl has to be removed. During the past few days here, I rewrote the parts of l-c where it explicitely used perl/perl-modules packages, so that it works with only perl-base installed. So that part is over. But l-c depends also on libapt-pkg-perl and libconfig-inifiles-perl, which in turn depend on perl (adding a total of 5MB to the netinst image which is unacceptable). Thankfully, the dependency is only one in the package name, and the packages seem to work fine with only perl-base installed. So, please try to remove the perl dependencies from these packages (themselves the changes being quite trivial). I will file proper bug reports asap, but I prefer not to lose time. I cannot stress enough how important this is for non-english locales and we only have a few days to get the packages into testing (so please upload with urgency=high). If you will not do that/have no time, please say so, and we can do an NMU with only this change as appropriate. Hope you will see this soon. Regards Konstantinos
