Did 'agt-get upgrade' but it won't install 'locales.'

[sk545]

Recently I used the command 'apt-get -u upgrade' on Debian. It upgraded all the packages except one called 'locales.' Here is the error that I get at the end:

l_SI.ISO-8859-2... done
sq_AL.ISO-8859-1... done
sr_YU.ISO-8859-5@cyrillic...LC_MONETARY: value of field `int_curr_symbol' does not correspond to a valid name in ISO 4217
dpkg: error processing locales (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of localeconf:
localeconf depends on locales; however:
Package locales is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing localeconf (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured


Any ideas as to what might be wrong?

Thanks.

I'm getting the same error and fixed it once a long time ago but can't remember how to fix it now, I would appreciate knowing how to resolve this also.

first try:

apt-get install locales

(on its own)

if that still doesn't work, then

dpkg-reconfigure locales

debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog
debconf: (Dialog frontend requires a screen at least 13 lines tall and 31 columns wide.)
debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline
/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: locales is broken or not fully installed.
I don't know if this attributable to me being logged in remotely or not. I don't require any of the internationalization settings, is there anyway to strip it down to just us english?
