Question can i safely remove unused language packs

jmano

New Pleskian
i am having issues trying to stay within the inode limit of my hoster and need to reduce inodes. There about 30k unused inodes in:

/usr/local/psa/admin/application/smb/resources/languages

and

/usr/local/psa/admin/application/admin/resources/languages

and

/usr/local/psa/admin/application/default/resources/languages

i have found no way to uninstall these language packs through the plesk panel or add/remove components utility (there is an option for all localisation in this utility but cannot be uninstalled)

so can i just manually delete all the folders except the en_US folder in those three locations ? i tested it and everything seems to still work ok, but i just want to be sure that it's not going to come back and byte me at some point later .


i really need those inodes back and have slimmed down everything but Plesk 12.5 is what takes the most inodes

Yes, you can physically remove locale folders, but I suppose that they will be created again after next Plesk update.
