So, there IS no such flag available for the current version, ie.
the version, the OP is about.

thank you!  actually I  was just wondering about the missing flag with the new version before reading this post.

Worked very well, when there used to be such a flag. At least on
my systems it worked very well.

Did you create a /etc/locales.build file?

yep, I have solved that problem, cause my locales.build is there though, syntax is not correct. I have replaced it with the locale.gen. now it works!

Yes, as I said: There IS no such flag as "userlocales". But you're right,
this flag is ignored - just like other non-existant flags.

Anyway, the solution is to create a /etc/locale.gen file and run locale-gen.
