Bug with the locale path

Bug with the locale path

[Goofy]

Hello,

i play around with the grub 2.02~Beta2 and i think there is a litte bug ?
i configure the paket with the following line
./configure --prefix=  --datarootdir=/usr/share 
--localedir=/usr/share/locale

but if i want to install grub with

# grub-install /dev/sda
Installing for i386-pc platform.
grub-install: warning: cannot open directory `/usr/local/share/locale': 
File or Directory not found

but in the config.log is

....
   $ ./configure --prefix= --datarootdir=/usr/share 
--localedir=/usr/share/locale

....

localedir='/usr/share/locale'
#define LOCALEDIR "/usr/share/locale"

I can't reproduce it using current GIT master so I assume it is fixed in 
the meantime.

it (was?) issue when translations were not imported before configure/build. if you have translations imported, then the locale path will be populated with messages files and therefore the directory is created.

The problem here is not missing translations but wrong locale path. I do 
not have grub translations either (actually I did not even install grub 
in the first place, I run grub-install from the build dir).
