Where/how do you set $LANGUAGE? I can't find "en" (without an additional
qualifier) in /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED, therefore I suspect that this
might be the reason for your problem. You check this by unsetting this
environmental variable

export LANGUAGE=

and testing if that makes any difference. Once you have figured out which
setting causes the problem  you have to find out where it gets set. A
likely candidate is /etc/environment.
