locale errors

["Zach Uram" <netrek@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm running Debian 4.0, getting these errors almost everytime install
a package. Anyone know what I must do to fix this? I want the locale
set to be US English.

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
        LANGUAGE = (unset),
        LC_ALL = (unset),
        LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
