Pulling in locales on Debian

general

currently my nice fresh linode has the C and POSIX locales.

I require enGB/ISO-8859-1 and enGB.UTF-8/UTF-8.

What do i need to poke at? I'm used to debian asking me this automagically. The gentoo user wants to prod /let/locales.build but I don't think that's going to help.

TIA

iirc:

edit your /etc/locale.gen

as root: locale-gen

Thanks for the pointer. I think it's fixed now.

I have to say I am impressed at how truly minimal the debian install is.
