Title:
  Login complains "Your environment specifies an invalid locale",
  doesn't say which locale

Status in cloud-init:
  Fix Released
Status in cloud-init package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On login to a brand new trusty machine with all updates applied, the
  following message appears:

  _____________________________________________________________________
  WARNING! Your environment specifies an invalid locale.
   This can affect your user experience significantly, including the
   ability to manage packages. You may install the locales by running:

     sudo apt-get install language-pack-UTF-8
       or
     sudo locale-gen UTF-8

  To see all available language packs, run:
     apt-cache search "^language-pack-[a-z][a-z]$"
  To disable this message for all users, run:
     sudo touch /var/lib/cloud/instance/locale-check.skip
  _____________________________________________________________________

  - The message complains about an invalid locale, but then doesn't tell
  you what the locale is or what is invalid about it.

  - The suggested advice "sudo apt-get install language-pack-UTF-8"
  breaks as follows:

  ubuntu@z4-dev-black-wap01:~$ sudo apt-get install language-pack-UTF-8
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree       
  Reading state information... Done
  E: Unable to locate package language-pack-UTF-8

  The above warning needs to be fixed to contain the locate that is
  invalid, and to provide accurate package names in the advice given to
  fix it.
