Bug#361048: locales: /etc/environment still used
Package: locales
Version: 2.3.6-5
Followup-For: Bug #361048
After upgrading the locales package, I lost my localisation. I found
that it is due to the move /etc/environment -> /etc/default/locale,
because many programs seem to use environment. The su command actually
seems to set correctly locale variables using /etc/environment.
