I know that it would break portability to have GNUstep depend on those
files from glibc, as not every system uses it. However, if the files
are similar (as I believe they all come from a common source), would
adding, say, --with-alt-
tz=/path/to/files and --with-alt-i18n=/path/to/files be a horrific
thing? That way, you'd only have one place on the filesystem
containing those types of files, instead of two. Not to mention, it
would make my life easier on LinuxSTEP. ;)
... and it would save 590 files.
As timezone files on Unixes are in well-known places, we could check at
installation time and create a symlink for the directory.
