Package: locales Version: 2.11.3-3 Severity: normal Tags: d-i
Running "dpkg-reconfigure locales" without making any changes in the user interface can cause the default system locale to change. To reproduce: - Install Debian. During installation, in the installer, select some locale for the default system locale. - Note that the selected locale is set in /etc/default/locale. - Run "dpkg-recongigure locales". * Note that for the default system locale dialog/page, the dpkg-reconfigure list shows "None" as the current default system locale (instead of the previously selected locale). - Without making any changes to the selections, proceed through all pages/dialogs (press Enter/Return). * Note that /etc/default/locale no longer has the same locale setting, even though you changed nothing in the dpkg-reconfigure dialogs. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages locales depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 [glibc-2.11-1] 2.11.3-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib locales recommends no packages. locales suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * locales/default_environment_locale: en_US.UTF-8 * locales/locales_to_be_generated: en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
