Lintian tag: unknown-locale-code

Type: warning

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The package appears to ship locales for a language but uses an unknown
locale code as a subdirectory of /usr/share/locale. This usually results
in users of the intended target language not finding the locale. The
language codes used in the locale directories are those from the ISO 639-1
and ISO 639-2 standards, not those usually used as TLDs (which are from
the ISO 3166 standard).

It is possible that the language code was mistyped or incorrectly guessed
from the language's or country's name.

Please refer to http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php
for details.
