My guess is that they're just out of sync. First locales was updated, but not libc6; now libc6 has been updated, and locales has been updated _again_, so they're still out of sync.

sid - locales and glibc
Hi list I just ran apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, just to see that locales are going to be removed. Why? because it depends on glibc, and glibc is not available. Hmm, I always thought that glibc is a rather important lib, on ehich most c-programs are based. So, what is wrong? Is glibc not needed any more? And if yes, I won't be able to use locales any more, and so apt won't never talk german to me any more :-( ? joerg -- Did you know that if you play a Windows 2000 cd backwards, you will hear the voice of Satan? That's nothing! If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
