I am afraid I do not understand your question. There should be only
one "locales" package and "apt-get install locales", possibly adding
the -f flag to apt-get if necessary, ought to just install the appropriate
version for your installation. It should be the same package version as
the libc6 you have installed, since they come from the same source package.
As to which locale to choose when installing the package and debconf asks,
well, that's up to you. You can choose a national locale of your liking
(I use it_IT.UTF8@euro as a default, since I am Italian, but also keep 
all other Italian locales and all English locales available, as a fall 
back) or just leave it unset, which uses the default C locale.
Does this answer your question?

Giacomo
