new install of raspbian: locale errors

[solar3000]

locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory

Why do I keep seeing these scary messages?
I see them at raspi-config and I see them at apt-get upgrade.

try sudo?

At terminal or via SSH type:

sudo apt-get update

Run the command 'locale' and see what comes up. Perhaps the locale that's currently set is not installed.
If it's not installed then change the locale to something that is installed.
