Package: locales-all Version: 2.13-14 Severity: important Tags: sid Hi,
Some days ago, locales-all got upgraded on my system during a dist-upgrade, and I didn't notice it. After a reboot some time later, I lost my locale (fr_FR.UTF-8) and dpkg-reconfigure could not generate it back with this message: Error: invalid locale settings: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 I struggled hard to find that removing it could solve the problem (well, it was also printed just above the previous message that locales-all was installed…) After uninstalling locales-all, all went back to normal.

I found that: Start-Date: 2011-04-25 12:33:45 Commandline: apt-get dist-upgrade Install: locales-all:amd64 (2.11.2-13, automatic), lzma:amd64 (4.43-14, automatic) Upgrade: ca-certificates-java:amd64 (20100412, 20110421~nmu1) End-Date: 2011-04-25 12:34:03 So, maybe this is rather a bug from ca-certificates-java? I don't really know.
