First let's get some terminology. The 'bash language' is better known as the 'locale', which combines all of the various language settings from a different geographic area: the language, character encoding, etc. To change your locale, run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales'. However, you should be able to email us the contents of any apt-get error message, just by pasting it into your email client. That doesn't work for you? If you're using vim, you could also output the error message directly into the editor within command mode like so: :r !apt-get [whatever you told apt-get to do] -- Stephen R.
