No it is existent... it's just my own locale... which is basically just a modification of en_US ... that is everything English, but ISO conformant date/time formats, "," as decimal separator and things like that. Never made a problem so far (and I've been using this for decades ;-) ). > Please re-read [bug #834557], especially [message #43]. > > [bug #834557]: <https://bugs.debian.org/834557> > [message #43]: <https://bugs.debian.org/834557#43> Sorry, must have overseen your reply back then. There again, the locale actually exists... :-) And at least right now I don't have /var/lib/apt-listbugs/ignore_bugs (neither do I remember that I'd have ever ignored bugs). > Could you please try after setting an actually existent locale and > tell > me whether the error happens again? Well, as said, it didn't even happen with the same locale... Cheers, Chris.
