Ok, this is not something you should usually do, however:

dpkg --force-depends -r belocs-locales-data belocs-locales-bin

this will force removal of the offending packages; then, to install 
locales, do (I am assuming you already downlowded and have available

the locales package you want to install):

dpkg -i the_appropriate_locales_package.deb

Finally, do

dpkg-reconfigure locales

to properly configure which locales you want installed in your system.
However, how could you possibly put your system in such an inconsistent
state? This should never happen unless you fiddle very heavily with
dangerous tools, such as hand-using dpkg with --force options as 
above, or trying to remove essential packages...

?? sitebar has nothing to do with locales. Is that the only

general rule of the thumb, I would suggest that you proceed as 
follows:


1) take pen and paper (or open a text file, if you prefer)
2) run dselect or whatever debian package management tool you
like best
3) mark for removal all packages which give you installation 
errors starting with the inessential ones, and write them down 
for later

4) try to execute what changes you made in 3), for example, if
using dselect, run Install, possibly a few times until it does
not progress any further or it finishes without errors
5) if there are still errors, go back to 3)

Now you should have your system in a consistent state. Next, 
go through the list of packages you removed, fire up again

your package management tool of choice, review the list to
see which ones you really want installed, forget about the 
others. Then try selecting as few as possible at a time of 
the ones you want, proceeding very much as you did above, i.e.


1) mark for installation the packages you want to add, making
sure that they do not conflict with something more important
2) try to execute what changes you made in 1) above, for example, 
if using dselect, run Install, possibly a few times until it does

not progress any further or it finishes without errors
3) if there are still errors, mark the offending packages for 
removal and send a bug report to the Debian Bug Tracking System.
4) go back to 1) until you installed all the packages you want 
or until you are sure the only ones left do not install cleanly.


Again, I do not understand how you could get your system in such an
inconsistem state. You must have done something very wrong.
What happened?

Dear Gavin,

really as Giacomo I don't understand what did you have done with your 
system!!!

lira:~$ apt-cache show sitebar
Package: sitebar
Priority: optional
Section: web
Installed-Size: 2084
Maintainer: S. Zachariah Sprackett [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Architecture: all
Version: 3.2.6-7
Depends: libapache2-mod-php4 | php4 (= 4.1), php4-mysql, apache2 | httpd, 
debconf (= 0.2.26), wwwconfig-common
Recommends: mysql-server
Filename: pool/main/s/sitebar/sitebar_3.2.6-7_all.deb
Size: 339626
MD5sum: d02579618064434756aa1a9992f6e4bc
Description: A web based bookmark manager written in PHP
 SiteBar allows you to access and manage your private, shared or public
 bookmarks from any computer and browser connected to the Internet. Create
 personal, family, team, company or enterprise-wide bookmarks with flexible
 access rules, permissions and customizable design.

Maybe you have some problems with this package only. If you are running sid 
maybe there's some problem with consistency of the packages, I don't know.

Follow the instructions from Giacomo, or maybe try something like:
dpkg-reconfigure sitebar

or simple 
apt-get remove sitebar.

Regards,

Leo

 Ok, I did not realize this was your problem previously. Use the command
 dpkg -l libc6
 to get the version of libc6 you have, then look in for it in your 
 favourite debian mirror (e.g. 
 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/glibc/), download the

 never _ever_ install something with dpkg -x! This calls dpkg-deb and
 just unpacks the contents of an archive without registering them in 
 the package system nor doing any needed cnfiguration! Do read the
 man page of dpkg and use it properly, since it is seriously capable
 of hosing your system is used in the wrong way. The right way to 
 install a package with dpkg is dpkg -i, to remove one dpkg -r, 
 to remove the package and all its configurations dpkg --purge.
 
 Let me stress this again, do read and understand the man pages of dpkg 
 before using it directly, unless you don't care risking to make your
 system unusable.

  I am afraid I do not understand your question. There should be only
  one locales package and apt-get install locales, possibly adding
  the -f flag to apt-get if necessary, ought to just install the
  appropriate version for your installation. It should be the same package
  version as the libc6 you have installed, since they come from the same
  source package. As to which locale to choose when installing the package
  and debconf asks, well, that's up to you. You can choose a national
  locale of your liking (I use [EMAIL PROTECTED] as a default, since I am
  Italian, but also keep all other Italian locales and all English locales
  available, as a fall back) or just leave it unset, which uses the default
  C locale.
  Does this answer your question?

  Giacomo

When I try to reconfigure I get

How do I fix this?

 Second, From what you emailed I'd make sure you have the latest ('u'), and

 errors here, just that the install failed.

Was that supposed to be 'locale is not installed'?

If so, apt-get install locale.

locale is requires for supporting multiple languages.  I have no idea if
the system can run without it and still display messages from programs
that support multiple languages through locale.
