This patch allows us to use glibc's build system to build locales in a package separate from glibc. 1. Use 'localedef' from $PATH since we are not rebuilding it. 2. Use '--no-archive' to avoid building the big locale archive, and because the already-built 'localedef' would want to write it to '/run/current-system/locale', which is not possible. 3. Pass $(inst_complocaledir)/$$locale to install files in the right place, and because otherwise, 'localedef' fails with: "cannot write output files to `(null)'". --- glibc-2.22/localedata/Makefile 1970-01-01 01:00:00.000000000 +0100 +++ glibc-2.22/localedata/Makefile 2015-09-25 14:18:34.698941752 +0200 @@ -195,7 +195,7 @@ INSTALL-SUPPORTED-LOCALES=$(addprefix in # Sometimes the whole collection of locale files should be installed.
