Bug#524483: locales-all: locales installation fails always with "cannot map archive header: Invalid argument"
Package: locales-all
Version: 2.9-7
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
installing locales-all or running locle.gen always ends with
cannot map archive header: Invalid argument
(which makes the installtion fail, of course) and the loacles are not
available. since locales did not work, i installed locales-all, led to
believe by
"This package contains the precompiled locale data for all supported
locales." that everything was done -- but not so, the exact same stuff
happnend (making me ask, what in fact is the meaning of that senetence).
