Addition: LC_ALL can override LANG even if LC_ALL is set to C, so set
both to de_DE or unset LC_ALL.

I think you have to check your /etc/locale.gen. Mine contains
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ISO-8859-15
de_DE UTF-8
Running locale-gen as root should look like
gurumobil1:~# locale-gen
Generating locales...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] done
de_DE.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
Afterwards german interfaces should work. (these instructions are for
debian woody, don't know about other distros). If locale-gen outputs
nothing, remove all blank lines and comments from /etc/locale.gen.
