Description
Sugar 0.87.3. When using ./setup fix_manifest, it is now triggering the generation of locale files (in what is likely your clean source working directory) and adding them into the MANIFEST file. This is a change in behaviour that increases the bundle file sizes with data that is being generated anyway at install time from the .po files.

Replying to walter:
Is this new behavior? I thought that it was always this way.
Well, maybe it happened a while back and I just didn't notice. I don't have old builds at hand to test (I'm working away from home). I'm just going to edit the MANIFEST by hand and make sure I don't include the locale directory in git or bundles, but pity the newbe.

The MANIFEST file will not impact your git repository. The only way that the locale files would be added is if you do a git add. However, these files are included in the .xo bundle and .tar file. Not sure if they are necessary...

I must be going senile in my old age, just did some tests and locale files are not re-generated at install time so looks like they have to be shipped/duplicated in the bundle. Will have to go and release Physics-4 again... :-(
