 today I installed lenny (5.0.2 base-system only) and afterwards
 performed an apt-get dist-upgrade to squeeze. While upgrading, endless
 warning messages were printed to the screen:
 
 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
 
 I had cancel the upgrade to examine these warning messages. All were the
 same (see above). At this time the environment variables LANGUAGE and
 LC_ALL were in fact unset. And LANG had a value of en_US.UTF-8 (see
 above).
 
 After remove/install locales, editing /etc/defaults/locals, running
 dpkg-reconfigure locales, logout/login, my environment looked like this:
 
 LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
 LC_ALL (unset)
 LANG (unset)
 
 I continued the dist-upgrade, but now without any warnings. Thus it
 seems to me, that in lenny it is assumed that at least LANG is set, but
 squeeze assumes LANGUAGE to be set. If this is true, it would be nice to
 see the upgrade process handling it somewhat better.
 

The problem is that the locales packages is reconfigured very late in
the upgrade process. There is nothing we can do, the messages will stop
at the end of the upgrade.

Actually there is, making perl STFU.
