Comment 6 for bug 1089549

I didn't say "it doesn't", but "I don't", obviously as a response to your question "do you have language-pack-gnome-it-base installed?"

About the symlinks. I have about 30.000 dangling symlinks. The symlinks should obviously be shipped in the packages that provide the file being pointed to. Having all those dangling symlinks makes an rgrep over /usr impossible because I get 30.000 messages about non-existent files. It looks like this problem is self-inflicted pain in Ubuntu. Debian doesn't seem to have done this mistake.
