Bug#210301: locales 2.3.2-6 won't configure

[Steve Doerr <sdoerr@swbell.net>]

Package: locales
Version: 2.3.2-6

locales in the unstable distro won't seem to configure for me, but the 
error doesn't offer anything as to what it's failing on.  I tried to 
move locale.gen out of the way, but it doesn't make a difference.

The error:
bash-2.03# mv locale.gen locale.gen.old
bash-2.03# apt-get install locales --reinstall

Any ideas on how I can get more info, or get around this?
Thanks,
