It might be nice for some admins to have their system use their locale, but they should install it when they want it. At least, this shouldn't return an error: # rpm -e glibc-locale error: Failed dependencies: glibc-locale is needed by (installed) yast2-ncurses-2.21.4-3.1.3.x86_64 glibc-locale is needed by (installed) man-2.5.2-37.1.2.x86_64 glibc-locale is needed by (installed) yast2-ncurses-pkg-2.21.2-1.1.2.x86_64 I suggesting removing the dependency, and admins wanting it should install glibc-locale manually.
