The setup:
1) The user has LC_ALL set to a locale on their machine (or some other LC_*
variable but it's usually LC_ALL).
2) This locale does not exist on an Ubuntu server.
3) The user sshes into the server.

I'm not incredibly happy about this approach (doing it in pam_env.so
would be best I think) but it does the job for now. I verified this in a
minimal bionic image with and without base-files from proposed and the
behaviour was as expected.
** Tags removed: verification-needed
I'm not a big fan of this approach but I certainly don't have any better
idea myself. At least the new executable should be relatively fast.
Anyway, let's 'just do it' in this case. I guess the additional libc dep
is a no-op.

Ah sorry, now done.
** Description changed:
- If LC_ALL is not set (which seems to be the default on a few server
- installations I've done now), mid way through installing, you get this

Can we get a Test Case and Regression Potential in the description
following SRU guidelines? Thank you!

Can I suggest that profile.d/01-locale-check.sh is a misnomer and it
should be called something like profile.d/01-locale-fix.sh instead,
because it (potentially) actively changes things? OTOH /usr/bin/locale-
check is fine because it doesn't change anything in itself.

your suggested change seems reasonable to me.
I don't love the use of 'eval', but it seems reasonably safe here.
Instead of quoting you could just reject argv[1] input if it
had characters other than [a-zA-z_.-] . Perhaps that makes
this more difficult.
Also, maybe you should try to
