What application?

Well you would use template0 as the TEMPLATE only if you wanted to CREATE a 
database with different collation than that in template1(the default template 
for 
the CREATE DATABASE command). So the question then is, why is the database 
cluster being created with a collation of en_US.UTF-8 when the locale is 
supposed to have been set to et_EE.UTF-8?

First are you sure that dpkg-reconfigure locales  is actually resetting the 
locale?

Second when you connect to the cluster with psql what does \l show for encoding 
and collation?
