Store locale in /etc/environment when it is different from en_US.

Good idea, but bad implementation.
+ [ -f $environment ] || [ $locale = en_US ] || echo LANG=$locale
$environment
This one will remove the current content of /etc/environment.
No, unless I am mistaken, this is equivalent to
[ ! -f $environment ] [ $locale != en_US ] echo LANG=$locale $environment
That is a bad idea. It should append or replace the LANG variable
instead.
Debian-edu store http_proxy and ftp_proxy variables in
/etc/environment. It is a bad idea to remove them just to update the
LANG setting.
So writing all variables at the same time is the simplest solution.
How do you create /etc/environment?
