Hi Marcin,
Thank you for the pointer.

gpe-image built successfully after I rebuilt glibc (which generated the missing
binary locale : en-gb, after I set it in my local.conf)

I looked at where IMAGE_LINGUAS is set and it is set with:
---
IMAGE_LINGUAS = '${@base_less_or_equal("ROOT_FLASH_SIZE", "16", "", "en-gb",
d)}'
---
in org.openembedded.dev/conf/distro/angstrom-2007.1.conf

shouldn't it be:
---
IMAGE_LINGUAS ?= '${@base_less_or_equal("ROOT_FLASH_SIZE", "16", "", "en-gb",
d)}'
---

so that it is over-ridable via local.conf?

e.g. with:
---
IMAGE_LINGUAS = "en-us"
---

also, it would be nice if this were documented in the default local.conf, as it
seems from following the instructions there that you can just generate the
locales that you care about (which may not include en-gb, and would therefore
fail on a build)
