As far as I understand the source of the problem is empty /var/lib/locales/supported.d/eo file from current version of language-pack-eo-base package (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/language-pack-eo-base/1:8.04+20080527). That file doesn't contain any locale names for esperanto (it has zero length actually) so no locales are created when package gets installed.

To fix it we should just add 3 locale definitions to the /var/lib/locales/supported.d/eo file:
eo.UTF-8 UTF-8
eo ISO-8859-3
eo_US.UTF-8 UTF-8

Then after generation of locales with locale-gen command, 2 esperanto locales become completely usable: eo (for ISO-8859-3 charset) and eo.utf8 (for UTF-8). BTW, I think we should really make eo.UTF-8 default locale for eo rather then use old ISO-8859-3.

Fix me if I'm wrong. My another comment about the same issue - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/langpack-locales/+bug/23435
