>Description:
Two packages (that I have found) do not set USE_PKGLOCALDIR=YES in their Makefile, but use ${PKGLOCALEDIR} in their PLIST file.

On Solaris this causes the locale files to install to /usr/local/share/locale rather than /usr/local/lib/locale, and so those files are not properly packaged. On other operating systems where locales go to /usr/local/lib/locale by default this probably goes unnoticed.

The two packages in question are subversion-base and libgnomecups. There are probably others that I have not installed yet.

A third package installs locale files into /usr/local/share/locale/ but does not do anything with them at all. This is bison, which doesn't list its locale files in its PLIST at all. It also needs USE_PKGLOCALEDIR=YES in its Makefile once the PLIST is fixed.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build and install on Solaris 9.
>Fix:
Add to bison/Makefile, subversion-base/Makefile, libgnomecups/Makefile:

USE_PKGLOCALEDIR=      yes

Add to bison/PLIST:
