The Ubuntu buildd chroots shouldn't be significantly different from Debian's (debootstrap, sbuild, etc.); in particular they do not have any locales either. It built fine on all 7 architectures [1]. > My machine has not compiled the locale de_DE.UTF-8.

Then you can test it without risking an FTBFS.
