Thanks. That would explain why alsa-policy-enforcement depends on swi-prolog.
So I won't touch it.

But what about the two packages I mentioned above? prolog-extensions and ohm-plugin-prolog?
Do I need those?

ohm-plugin-prolog is closed source package [1], but open source replacement exists [2], and from quick glance at the sources I can tell you it evaluates rules from /usr/share/policy/rules/current/ directory for audio levels (revised the two files in that directory, too).

prolog-extensions is also a closed source package [1], but open source replacement exists, too [3]. It looks like it provides file /usr/lib/prolog/extensions/fact.so, which source [4] suggests it may be related to the audio stuff, too (a "bridge" ohm-fact <-> prolog-fact), but if you want to be 100% sure, you should inspect that by yourself, I just briefly looked through the code. If you asked me whether you can remove these packages I would rather say "no, I think the audio system strongly needs them".

I've just found that trying to edit any contact with a country specified, or indeed creating a new contact and trying to specify a country, crashed osso-addresbook. Has anyone encoutered and fixed something lime that? I am asking here because I am absolutely definitely positive that it is a side-effect of an over-zealous purge but can't pinpoint which package might be responsible since it happened sometimes in the past 3 or 4 weeks and I did not keep the record.

Code:
$ dpkg --get-selections > package-list-for-thread-82641
Have you filed a bug report? I think we absolutely need that.

Just to clarify: by "country" do you mean the "region" sub-field in an address?

Yes, that's the one.

I have attached a list of deleted packages. On top of that, I have also shrank my locales cache. I've tried putting packages that sounded remotely relevant back one by one, even rebooting each time, but with no effect. The moment I select a country from the drop-down "Region" list, the Contacts app goes boom. For contacts that already have the country specified, all I need to do is open them for editing.

And what exactly would be the bug description?
"Doctor, it hurts when I try to scratch my left ear with my right foot."
"Well, don't do it then!"

Do you have /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive ?

I do indeed. Otherwise nothing would work. But, as mentioned in post #78, I've reduced it to only contain the UK locales. Rolling it back to stock was on my list to try, your post prompted me to get my posterior in gear and try it right away and I am happy to report that it fixed the problem.

It is obvious that I must have made a mistake in shrinking the locales cache. I followed reinob's guide in post #39, with my /etc/locale.gen containing:
Code:
en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_GB ISO-8859-1
(I found that the second line was necessary to render all strings and labels.)

So what should my locales look like to have my cake and eat it, so to speak?
