Package: locales Version: 2.36-9+deb12u3 Severity: wishlist Tags: d-i l10n Dear Maintainer,
It would be nice to have C.UTF-8 in the list which dpkg-reconfigure locales shows; When installing a desktop I usually select the C locale since the others don't really apply and I'm unable to use a different locale setting for date and lang. This however breaks gnome since it requires a utf-8 locale and I'm unable to select C.UTF-8 at installation. A workaround is to uncomment the C.UTF-8 locale in /etc/locale.gen and run dpkg-reconfigure locales after installation.
