Package: locales Version: 2.11.1-3 Severity: minor When locales is upgraded at the same time as other packages, there are quite a few things that run between the removal of the old locales and the generation of the new ones. This is most visible with the perl warning:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = (unset), LC_ALL = (unset), LC_COLLATE = "C", LANG = "en_US.UTF-8" are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory which appears a lot in the configuration of other packages or in some triggers (but not at all when locales isn't being upgraded). Some packages seem to have a way to tell apt that they want to be upgraded alone, I wonder if locales deserves the same... -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages locales depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.32 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 [glibc-2.11-1] 2.11.1-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib locales recommends no packages. locales suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * locales/default_environment_locale: en_US.UTF-8 * locales/locales_to_be_generated: All locales -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-glibc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
