[bug#44075] [PATCH] gnu: Add make-glibc-locales-collection.

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hi!

Efraim Flashner <efraim@flashner.co.il> skribis:

> (en_us-glibc-locales): New variable.

Cool!

A while back I posted the attached patch, which reuses existing code
from (gnu system locale) and (gnu packages base).  I think I used it
just to see how much space all the UTF-8 locales take, compared to all
the locales.

Would it make sense to borrow from that?

At any rate, it’s the kind of package that’ll be more useful if/when we
have parameterized packages.
