I now decided to upgrade to Maverick a second laptop. When reconfiguring
locales first time the installation upgrade script (i.e., after finished
downloading new packages), I found the errors:

usr(share(i18n/locales/es_**  (** stands for all nationalities and variations 
of Spanish locale)
syntax error: not inside a locale definition section.

no definition for LC_CTYPE category found
no definition for :C_COLLATE category found

failed
...

Thereafter many packages complained
perl: warning: setting locale falied
perl: warning: please check that your locale settings

LANGUAGE= "es_ES:es_en_GB:en"
LC_ALL =" es_ES.utf8"
LANG="es_ES.utf8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: falling back to the standard locale "C"
...

Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library at
/usr/share/perl5/DebConf/FromtEnd/Gnome.pm line 60

...

/bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (es_ES.utf8)


So (now in two computers) it seems to be confirmed that something wrong happens 
with the Spanish locale at the start of the script.

It's still upgrading but I guess that I will encounter problems later
on...
