I have a further question about locales - running 'dpkg-reconfigure locales' was fine for generating the one(s) I need, but the default locale was still inherited from Maemo's settings, which was causing some python scripts to fail with codec errors. I found I could override them using Easy-Debian's /etc/environment (or /.debian/etc/environment): Can anyone tell me whether this is the 'right' way to accomplish this?
