[Fedora-trans-ar] Why Fedora installs all the world languages on my poor laptop?!

Salaam,

Today I checked the Arabic locale .mo files by doing locate .mo. I was
astonished to find my poor laptop doesn't only have Arabic and English
languages installed but every language one can dream of. This makes a total
of 332MB on my hard disk. Now I am going to remove them manually which is not
something to be recommeded since it breaks package validation. Any one here
knows why is this? Any solution? Should I tell Sherif to file a bug? ;)

Another point is I am missing the all the Arabic locales files like LC_TIME, 
LC_COLLATE, ... and hence I can't display the date in Arabic. There is is 
also no ar_xx locales for different Arabic countries - only a standard ar! 
May be I am missing something obvious?
