Removing unused locale once and for all

Hello! Thanks for writing knurpht, ikanotheokara. They are not active but present, as soon as i install or update certain package, they are accompanied by a lang-*, which i see as redundant not because of space constraints they don’t take up much space.

/usr/lib/locale
226.7 MiB (237,753,719)
2,841 files, 1,016 sub-folders

But, they’re unnecessary for my use. Just wanted to leave only those two

$ zypper locales
Code  | Language                | Requested
------+-------------------------+----------
en    | English                 | Fallback
en_US | English (United States) | Requested
$

When i first installed my Tumbleweed, i didn’t wanted glibc-locale to be installed at first so i chosed glibc-locale-base as minimal instead. However, the latter took it glibc-locale as dependencie.

Now, i see that i can remove it without taking anything with it according to zypper, but I don’t know the consequences afterwards? You say i shouldn’t, that’s why i’m hesitant, if you recommend that i shouldn’t remove it, I’ll leave it.

The link above is it interesting, more or less what i am asking for, i am reading it. Nevertheless, I will stick to my topic and your suggestions here.
