locale-archive is a database to hold all the files usually below
/usr/lib/locale in a single file.
One can use such a database but one does not have to.
In the installed system we don’t use it (We tried a few years ago but
decided against using it).
I don’t know why we use it in the instsys, maybe because the
savings in efficiency and space are more important for the instsys.
The locale-archive file in the instsys has only 2.0 MB though.
That is certainly not enough to contain all the locales listed
by “locale -a” in the instsys, i.e. most of these locales are
probably faked and just copies of en_US.UTF-8.
