Bug#684134: Same problem

[ROGERIO DE CARVALHO BASTOS <rogeriobastos@dcc.ufba.br>]

Package: locales
Version: 2.13-35

I put a 'echo $RET' in postinst after lines 17 and 18. I don't know  
why, but db_get return old values when dpkg-reconfigure runs in  
non-interactive mode.

How to reproduce:

# debconf-show locales
* locales/default_environment_locale: pt_BR.UTF-8
* locales/locales_to_be_generated: pt_BR.UTF-8 UTF-8

# debconf-set-selections /path/to/locales-debconf   # file attached
# debconf-show locales
* locales/default_environment_locale: pt_BR.UTF-8
* locales/locales_to_be_generated: en_US ISO-8859-1, en_US.UTF-8  
UTF-8, pt_BR ISO-8859-1, pt_BR.UTF-8 UTF-8, ru_RU ISO-8859-5,  
ru_RU.UTF-8 UTF-8

# dpkg-reconfigure --default-priority locales
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
  pt_BR.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
# debconf-show locales
* locales/default_environment_locale: pt_BR.UTF-8
* locales/locales_to_be_generated: pt_BR.UTF-8 UTF-8
