locales-all in dCore

The Debian repositories contain the package locales-all that provides all locale-files in a bunch. That all-round carefree package should make up for any localisation requirements. As a down-side there its size of approximately 25 MB to it. That gives reason to cut it down to a mylocale-extensions.

The following approach has not been thoroughly tested but should work in principle. The technical steps are explained in more detail in the outline about locales in ub-Dcore.

1. Comment out the line in '~/.profile' that hard-codes the LANG to “en_US.UTF-8” and have it set through the boot-code lang (cf. below for the locale-codes).
2. Import and load the locales-all package. All imported locales are available under '/usr/lib/locale/'; the listing provides the locale-codes.
3. Copy the desired locales aside and remove the locales-all extension.
4. Create an extension for the selected locales.
