It doesn't fail to install, it fails to install *properly* - ie it is unable to setup the dummy locale information correctly (localedef rejects some of the locale data) and as a result some of the tests fail during the test suite execution. > This issue was also part of Bug#156821 which was meant to already be > fixed, fwiw. I think the patch has been accidentally lost somewhere. I'll check the latest source again, but I've been running unstable and have been having to manually patch libc to do test suite runs (even late last year and early this year). localedef on my laptop is behaving as if the patch hasn't been applied (I have libc6 2.3.1-13 installed).
