Hmm, this is the locale output:

LANG=C
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_PAPER="C"
LC_NAME="C"
LC_ADDRESS="C"
LC_TELEPHONE="C"
LC_MEASUREMENT="C"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="C"
LC_ALL=

and locale -a tells me:

C
POSIX

I assume C in locale and C in locale -a are the same, no?
furthermore, as I understand man locale-gen & man locale.gen there
should be something configured in the locale.gen file to use something
that is not default, but its just the generic file, no configs done.
running dpkg-reconfigure and put it to C as default explicitly didn't
help aswell.
any further hints?
