Interesting... The problem does not occur on my 64bit machine, only on
the 32bit.

The update on the 64bit machine did not show as being from Backports on
the Udate Manager as it does on the 32bit machines. Remove Backports on
the 64bit machine and the 2.30.5-0ubuntu4.1+langfixes~maverick1 still
shows (under Security). Installed w/o issue. On the 32bit machines the
issue from my comment #11 remains & had to use 'dpkg-reconfigure -a' to
get all working again as 'dpkg-reconfigure locale' did not stick on
logout/reboot.
