Bug#266744: LC_ALL overrides LC_COLLATE when determining console type in termwrap



Package: base-config
Version: 2.35
Severity: normal

In the recognise terminal type section of termwrap, both LC_ALL and 
LC_COLLATE are set. However, LC_ALL overrides LC_COLLATE, and as a 
result serial consoles are incorrectly identified as pseudo consoles. 
Unsetting LC_ALL at this point and restoring it again afterwards result 
in the check running correctly.
