locales (2.31-14) unstable; urgency=low
* Starting with locales 2.31-14, non UTF-8 locales are deprecated and not
offered anymore in the debconf dialog, except for the ones already
configured. Nevertheless users of non UTF-8 locales are encouraged to
switch their system to an UTF-8 locale.
Please note that iconv still supports conversion to and from non UTF-8
charset. For instance reading a file using an ISO-8859-15 charset can be
done with: iconv --from-code=ISO-8859-15 foobar.txt

locales (2.7-3) unstable; urgency=low

more information.

locales (2.7-1) unstable; urgency=low
* Starting with locales 2.7-1 the deprecated no_NO locale has been
removed. The switch to the nb_NO locale should be done automatically
by this package, however some applications may have to be restarted
in order to recognize the new locale settings.

locales (2.3.6-7) unstable; urgency=low
* Locale variables are now stored in /etc/default/locale and no more
/etc/environment. The reason is that Debian Policy forbids modifying
configuration files of other packages, and /etc/environment is a
configuration file for PAM.
Make sure to remove old definitions from /etc/environment, this file
is no more modified for the reason explained above.
