locales is to set your geographic/language set and won't give you
apt-setup:

Description: GNU C Library: National Language (locale) data [support]
 Machine-readable data files, shared objects and programs used by the
  C library for localization (l10n) and internationalization (i18n)
  support.
   .
    This package contains the libc.mo i18n files, plus tools to generate
     locale definitions from source files (included in this package). It
     allows
      you to customize which definitions actually get generated. This is
      a
       savings over how this package used to be, where all locales were
       generated
        by default. This created a package that unpacked to an excess of
	30 megs.
	Tag: admin::configuring, devel::i18n, implemented-in::c,
	role::app-data, role::program, scope::utility
	Task: bosnian, british, croatian, norwegian, romanian, swedish,
	turkish
