Are you talking about language names? They are either ll or ll_LL.
As everything will be UTF-8 encoded, there is no need to add encoding.
There is probably a need to add a UTF-8 encoding something,
but there probably isn't really a need.
Why does it have to be char something[] when

It doesn't work, you can't get country from locale, you must always ask
user to tell where he lives.
Huh?

Why does it have to be char something[] when

I did not say it has to be a char[6], I do not care if someone wants to
malloc it.
Please use strdup and friends, or asprintf, or other kind of
things that are less prone to break.

No, this locale does not exist.
That doesn't really matter if it doesn't currently exist on
your system. You can always make one.

Ok, I will use strdup. While we are on it, why are return values of
allocation routines never checked?
You could add checks, or use/define xstrdup to give some
useful error message.

Hi,

Why do you use DEBCONF_LANG rather than LANG or LC_ALL ?

There are two points I am unconfortable with this patch:
Why not use locale information ? (it is needed for some frontend and
other things)
and why is the country information 6-chars long?
