Initially my locales are looking this: root@ubuntu:~# locale -a C C.UTF-8 de_AT.utf8 de_BE.utf8 de_CH.utf8 de_DE.utf8 de_LI.utf8 de_LU.utf8 en_US.utf8 POSIX Here is an example script (stored in /etc/init/test.conf): exec locale-gen --purge & Here is the result: root@ubuntu:~# start test && sleep 60 && locale -a test stop/waiting locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_COLLATE to default locale: No such file or directory C C.UTF-8 POSIX locale-gen has purged the locales but something has caused it to stop then. But if I'm forwarding stdout to /dev/null all is working fine. Here is the updated script: exec locale-gen --purge > /dev/null & And this is now the result: root@ubuntu:~# start test && sleep 60 && locale -a test stop/waiting C C.UTF-8 de_AT.utf8 de_BE.utf8 de_CH.utf8 de_DE.utf8 de_LI.utf8 de_LU.utf8 en_US.utf8 POSIX To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/langpack-locales/+bug/1300684/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
