I'm getting a lot of errors regarding LOCALES, especially in Perl 
modules when upgrading.

Example (one of many):
Setting up xprt-common (0.0.9.final-2) ...
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
    LANGUAGE = (unset),
    LC_ALL = (unset),
    LC_CTYPE = "en_US.UTF-8",
    LANG = (unset)
   are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
When I run 'locale' I get two warnings:
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
LANG=POSIX
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_ALL=
(everything else says "POSIX")
I tried running 'local-gen' which generated a locale for 
en_US.ISO-8859-1 (Nothing about UTF) and it still gives the same errors.

HELP?

I've run into this on a couple of installs using an older Sarge beta 
installer; I've fixed it by re-running "dpkg-reconfigure locales", 
selecting all three US_EN entries, and then on the next screen choosing 
the first EN_US entry. I don't really understand what I did, but it got 
rid of the problem for me on both boxes.
