Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

Description:    Ubuntu 8.04
Release:        8.04

during upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04, whenever the process sets up any
locale file, the 'localedef" process gets to a state where it uses
99-100% CPU, and never finishes.

This is not the first time it happens to me during an upgrade from 7.10
to 8.04

The only solution I found was to manually kill the localdef process.
Afterwards, any subsequent call to locales hangs, and I have to manually
kill them all. Needless to say this does horrible damage to the upgrade
process, and I have to reboot the system, and manually fix the
packages... if I succeed rebooting.

Note that after the first locale process I kill, there are (parentless)
localedef process running amok that prevent further locales - until a
reboot.
