Hi,
since this is not an aptitude problem and the bug is already closed,
let's move to debian-i18n list and skip the bug report.

Please check also /etc/environment which contained in the past
a language setting as well and some programs (e.g. GNOME) could

If you want English messages you could also use
LANG=C
hich doesn't require locale support!??

Maybe you just have to reboot (or switch temporarily to run level 1 via
init 1?).
