Because you have only LANG set, but not LC_MESSAGES or LC_ALL:
,----
| $ echo $LANG
| de_DE.UTF-8
| $ /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display garbage
| Keine Alternativen für garbage.
| $ env LANG=C /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display garbage
| No alternatives for garbage.
| $ export LC_MESSAGES=de_DE.UTF-8
| $ env LANG=C /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display garbage
| Keine Alternativen f?r garbage.
| $ export LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8
| $ env LANG=C /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display garbage
| Keine Alternativen für garbage.
| $ env LC_ALL=C /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display garbage
| No alternatives for garbage.
| $
`----
See locale(7) for detailed explanations.
Cheers,
Sven
