Bug#330671: debconf forgets one generated locales
Package: locales
Version: 2.3.5-6
Severity: normal
Hello.
This bug shows up during the debconf questioning for the "locales"
package, when installing after purging, or when dpkg-reconfiguring
after installation.
It affects the "dialog" frontend, but neither "readline" nor
"editor". Maybe it should be reported as a debconf bug.
In the first debconf menu "Select locales to be generated", select n
languages. Say:
[X] fr_FR ISO-8859-1
[X] fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8
[X] fr_FR@euro ISO-8859-15
Only the two last will be present in the second menu "Which locale
should be the default in the system environment?". And only those two
will actually be generated.
I hope this'll help to figure out the problem.
