Comment 24 for bug 251705

The suggested measure has been applied system wide in Debian and for some reason the same policy was not applied in Ubuntu... (Alongside some Hebrew and RTL specific apps that shipped with the Hebrew version of Debian)

If you believe that translating the whole app won't damage the user experience it would be the best solution... our only problem is the CLI apps

The solution you offered can put an end to this matter, setting the C locale in terminal would be sufficient and it will also allow us to translate the entire app without confusing the users

The text you mentioned in comment #13 is "Preconfiguring packages ..."

The following bug and the one you mentioned I reported earlier are related to each other and I also offered setting the locale to C there, The original maintainer of Hebrew Debian pariticpated there as well...

What are you offering?
