I could then specify that CLASS2 be installed before CLASS1, and my
package list would get passed to aptitude as:
locales
belocs-locales-bin
util-linux-locales
foo
bar

package-that-depends-on-locales-being-set

Did you encounter a problem with the default behaviour? It looks like
it, else you probably wouldn't feel the need to ask about this. Up until
now I had the fortune of aptitude figuring out dependencies on it's on.
Which means that either I didn't watch my installations closely enough
and missed out on something, or something is broken on your end.
Is there a specific distribution or package you are encountering
problems with?
