Steve,
so here is the background. I preseed the debconf database with
the locals I want to use and then I basically do the equivalent of
dpkg --set-selections and then a apt-get dist-upgrade( not truely what
I do but the process is the same). The locales package prompts me with
an ncurses menu to select locales which the ones I preset are already
checked and I have to manually select ok for it to continue. I first
noticed this yesterday, but it still occurs today( I sync every night
to a debian mirror ).
Also when I run your command on my current machine it also does the
exact same thing. It give some ncurses window to select the locales
I am using:
