Well, two-character language codes are normally valid locales, but I guess the problem is the fact that the 'locales' package isn't installed yet, /etc/locale.gen do not contain the requested locale and/or locale-gen have not generated the requested locales yet. The proper fix for this is to install 'locales' early, and make sure to fill /etc/locale.gen with sensible content before locale-gen is executed. If one only want to quiet down perl, setting the enviroment variable PERL_BADLANG to "0". This will tell perl to keep quiet if it encounters an unsupported locale. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
