Well, I don't have that in my settings, though there may still be
some old scripts around that does this, but only inside the script,
of course.

# File generated by update-locale

LANGUAGE="en_US:en"
And in my shell:
zira:~> locale
LANG=POSIX
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME=en_DK.utf8
LC_COLLATE=POSIX
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
And if I run "/usr/share/bug/im-config 3> /dev/stdout" manually,
I get:
[...]
=== locale output ===
LANG=POSIX
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME=en_DK.utf8

LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"

But reportbug still gives LC_ALL=C.

Thanks, that works. But the default should not modify the user's
settings.
BTW, reportbug still gives an empty "setxkbmap -print", but the output
is actually sent to the terminal instead of being redirected to the
file... Obviously, there is a missing ">&3" for this line in
"/usr/share/bug/im-config":
[...]
if [ -x /usr/bin/setxkbmap ]; then
echo "=== setxkbmap -print ===" >&3
/usr/bin/setxkbmap -print
echo >&3
fi
