Thanks, I'm only really concerned about chapter 6 at the moment. I seem to remember somebody (Alexander, perhaps) suggesting that the correct method is to install the required locales, which for me equates to the minimal locales. I'll go with all locales if that turns out to be the official recommendation.
I did recommend installing only wanted locales, but that's a workaround for BLFS bug. The bug is that GDM chooses (not well supported) UTF-8 locales in preference to non-UTF-8 ones if one selects a non-default language on the login screen. Since there will be a branch that adds some patches to address UTF-8 problems, this will become a non-issue for that branch.
