Trying to make lftp work, I'd downloaded the version in hamm. This
called for a new lic5 which caused the removal on damn near everything.
Included in that was the locales package.  I've restored almost 
everything, with the exception of the locales package which depends on
libc5 being removed.  I've tried to dpkg --force it down and a variety
of other things, but nothing seems to work and every time I use perl
(which is often) it shows irritating messages about the 'missing'
locales package.  Can anyone recommend how to proceed?

BTW, if your lftp package is balky, edit the /etc/lftp.config file
setting 

#set sync-mode off
set ftp:passive-mode on

and resist like the plague any impulse to mess with libc*
