Quite a few days have passed since I said I'd get back to you... Sorry. However, since no other bug report has described the same issue, we have reasons to fear that the settings were inconsistent also in Lucid, don't we? Also, since you mentioned GNOME session, does it mean that you use a GNOME l

That's what I was thinking too, that purge should remove it when found, since Ubuntu uses separate files in /var/lib/locales/supported.d/ that get installed by language-pack-** anyhow nowadays. However, in the event that someone would need to generate legacy locales e.g. Latin or KOI-8, the correc

Apparently, the content of /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local never gets cleaned up and it retained the list of all locales ever generated. That at least explains why "locale-gen --purge" re-generated the same unwanted locales. $ dpkg -S /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local dpkg-query: no path foun

Actually, it seems to be that even after re-installing and purging the packages for the corresponding languages, some trace remains of which ones they were: $ locale -a C C.UTF-8 fi_FI.utf8 POSIX ...and yet 'dpkg-reconfigure locales' produces: $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales Generating locales..

Part of the issue seems to be this: It appears that some files changed ownership between language-pack-** and language-pack-**-base since Lucid and, in cases when these packages were previously removed, but not purged, the libc6 locale that was generated remains, so check-language-support wants to
