Package: locales
Version: 2.13-36
Severity: critical
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
This version of locales causes any script that includes the line
. /etc/default/locales
to exit with a floating point exception. Unfortunately, dash shows this as
multiple commands within the script exiting with "trap divide error" followed
by floating point error, making the error very difficult to determine the
cause of.
This bug causes the system to fail to boot, and prevents the scripts in
/etc/init.d from running correctly.

strange. I upgraded again and it works now. I think it simply failed to
install correctly the first time around (though why aptitude didn't complain
about this later, I don't now.
I'm closing this bug. Thank you for your help.
