[Bug 1448301] [NEW] Invalid locales message says to use apt-get

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

On my first boot of snappy I received the following after logging in via
ssh:

Welcome to Ubuntu 15.04 (GNU/Linux 3.19.0-15-generic armv7l)

 * Documentation:  https://help.ubuntu.com/

The programs included with the Ubuntu system are free software;
the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the
individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.

Ubuntu comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by
applicable law.

Welcome to snappy Ubuntu Core, a transactionally updated Ubuntu.

 * See https://ubuntu.com/snappy

It's a brave new world here in snappy Ubuntu Core! This machine
does not use apt-get or deb packages. Please see 'snappy --help'
for app installation and transactional updates.

To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.

_____________________________________________________________________
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 locales
   sudo apt-get install language-pack-en
     or
   sudo locale-gen en_US.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
_____________________________________________________________________

Obviously, its contradictory to say "does not use apt-get" and then to
say "sudo apt-get install locales".
