locale settings questions
Let (a) = debian wg15-locale package, wg15-locale_2-5.deb
Let (b) = debian locales package, locales_2.0.4-1.deb
**********************************************************
Using (a) wg15-locale there is no problem setting "LANG=XX_XX" to any XX_XX in
the /usr/share/locale directory. No error messages are generated when one
executes "perl -v". Using "LANG=en_US" as an example. See following:
vtorrico# LANG=en_US
vtorrico#
vtorrico# perl -v

**************************************************
Using (b) locales when setting "LANG=XX_XX" to any XX_XX in the usr/share/locale
directory one gets the following error message when "perl -v" is executed.
Using "LANG=en_US" as an example.
vtorrico# LANG=en_US
vtorrico#
vtorrico# perl -v
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "en_US"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

My questions are:
(1) What must one do to make the locale settings of (b) locales operate
correctly?
(2) How does one determine what locale settings are supported and installed on
their system?
