Dear Maintainer,

after upgrade to 0.7.1-1 version of aptitude it stopped to respest locale
settings. My default locale is ru_RU.UTF-8, but aptitude still is in English,
even if running it with

$ LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 aptitude

or any other environment variable. My current locale settings are:

$ locale
LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="ru_RU.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Tried to reinstall aptitude, aptitude-common and locales, tried to
rebuild locales with

# dpkg-reconfigure locales

Nothing happens, aptitude is still in English. Other software, as I can see,
respects locale and is translated into Russian.

My unstable is not fully up to date, so maybe there is something else at
play, but I tried to reproduce this and couln't.

Enabling ru_RU.UTF-8 and other locales, and launching with this (note
that it's not LANG) is fine in any locale that I tried:

 LANGUAGE=ru_RU.UTF-8 aptitude

In my quick tests, it didn't work with LC_ALL and LANG, but I don't know
enough of i18n/l10n issues to see if this is a problem by itself, or if
LANGUAGE is the only mandatory one and the others deprecated or with
less rank, or something else.

It happens the same when I tried with cat and ls, for example.


Cheers.
