What for? So that an english admin can´t setup the package anymore for
his polish users?
I´m german but I certainly don´t want my linux to talk german to me,
same will be true for many polish users. Don´t mess with their
settings.
LANG gets set in /etc/enviroment and you must respect whatever the
admin has set there (or in his profile).
Of cause you can echo a line suggesting to change LANG to polish
during postinst.
May the Source be with you.
