Ubuntu uses the language selector and automatic installation/removal of locales by the language packs, so we won't fix this anytime soon.

The problem is that Ubuntu with its language-selector and its language-packs install too many locales, surely more than the user wants to install, and when a package needs to reconfigure locales, all these locales are generated, wasting several time.
