I guess that ISO comes with the locales for English then. (By the way, if you want a build environment more like that of the buildds, you can use eg. pbuilder. If you decide to try it out, I recommend using the pbuilder-dist wrapper script, which is available in package ubuntu-dev-tools) > But the building of package worked?

Note however that the package was build in a chroot with locales-all installed, but I tried it on my local system. > What does 'locale -a' and 'fakeroot locale -a' show? On my local system: C ca_ES.utf8 POSIX Inside the chroot, without installing locales-all: C POSIX Inside the chroot, after installing locales-all (like it has when it's building the package when locales-all is set as a build-dependency): C POSIX aa_DJ aa_DJ.iso88591 aa_DJ.utf8 [... almost enough lines to crash Iceweasel when copy-pasting more...] zu_ZA zu_ZA.iso88591 zu_ZA.utf8 > If only --enable-multibyte is specified, the configure script should > select a utf8 locale by itself. Yep, it picks up a random one though, which is why I set it to English explicitly.
