Bug#352620: confirmed
I can confirm this problem, also based on a different base locale:
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
de_DE.ISO-8859-1.../usr/share/i18n/locales/iso14651_t1:264: LC_COLLATE: syntax error
/usr/share/i18n/locales/iso14651_t1:266: LC_COLLATE: syntax error
[..]
[then the process hangs]
finlandia!joey(tty6):~/Projects/freeX/Perl-12.smtp> apt-cache show locales
Package: locales
[..]
Version: 2.3.6-1
[..]
Depends: glibc-2.3.5-3, debconf | debconf-2.0
[..]
finlandia!joey(tty6):~/Projects/freeX/Perl-12.smtp> dpkg -s libc6
Package: libc6
[..]
Version: 2.3.5-6.0.1
[..]
Provides: glibc-2.3.5-3
[..]
I can also confirm that the problem goes away with glibc 2.3.6-1*.
So there's at least a wrong dependency in the locales package.
Regards,
Joey
