Bug Description
Binary package hint: locales
I use the following locale settings (set by dapper installer)
LANG=he_IL.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
When upgrading dapper to edgy, I got the following messages:
Preparing to replace locales 2.3.18 (using .../locales_
Unpacking replacement locales ...
Preparing to replace xserver-xorg 7.0.0-0ubuntu45 (using .../xserver-
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:

LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "he_IL.UTF-8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.

The perl and gtk warnings appear again and again for many packages.
Trying to run a translated application (gcalctool) shows that it doesn't use the set locale, but uses its defaults instead.

That is not abnormal for dapper->edgy upgrades. Do the locales function
again afterwards?
