Subject: dpkg-dev: dpkg-dev conflicts with LANG=
Date: Sat, 18 Oct 1997 15:34:29 +0000
Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.4.0.19

dpkg-dev relies on an unset LANG environment variable. 

Typical codefragment:

        } elsif ($! !~ m/no such file or directory/i) {
            &error("unable to open substvars file $varlistfile: $!");

This breaks with non-English error messages.
