That is not the problem. The problem is that it is not correctly use the
language encodings.

There can be many encodings out there with a clear definded encoding:
de       ISO-8859-1
de_DE    ISO-8859-15
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8

No other encodings are defined for the listed ones.

This is absolutely independent to what is the default for debian (let
me tell, a boring rank decision, but that's my attitude). If the
encoding is not including the .UTF-8 setting then the encoding is the
default language encoding which is ISO-8859-1 (or -15) for german or
KOI-8 for russian and so on.

UTF-8 is something my decency deny me to tell. But however, Debian is
and should also support non default settings as that is the default.
(nice word play but I hope you see what I mean.)

I never ever will downgrade my system to such a broken encoding than
UTF-8! Please leave that decision to the user and don't try to
patronize!
