Bug#4077: perl bug



Package: perl
Version: 5.003-2

I get the following error messages every time perl starts up
on my debian-linux machines (perl and return with do it!)
This is the current perl-5.003 release.  Any idea how I can
rid my system of this problem?  (The perl scripts all run 
fine, I am not that familiar with perl).

warning: setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "") failed.
warning: LC_ALL = "(null)", LC_CTYPE = "(null)", LANG = "de",
warning: falling back to the "C" locale.

I took the advice of a couple of individuals from queries to
debian-users mailing list:

(1) installed wg15_locale_1-1

(2) confirmed that the latest version, perl_5.003-2, was installed

This did not fix the problem.  I have verified that the
/usr/share/locale and /usr/share/nls directories (from wg15_locale)
are present and full.

I think there may be something missing in the configuration of either
perl or wg15_locale, hence, I have reported this bug.

I also just reran perlconfig just to make sure that it is configured
as designed.  I can produce the error message anytime perl is
executed, for example, "perl -v" will produce the error message.
