`sudo locale-gen "$LANG"` is the answer when everyone's yelling about "can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct" and apt-get's perl calls are throwing warnings.

[ruby-core:36440] Changes for Ruby in Debian (and Ubuntu)
june 2011 by rcrowley
Regarding using Debian alternatives for /usr/bin/ruby: smart move but one that's going to cause issues as the owner of /usr/bin/ruby changes.
Regarding /usr/local/bin/gem: this is terrible and stupid. System packages use --prefix=/usr. It's a slippery slope to go back on this now.
Regarding continued stupidity with the ruby1.9.1 and libruby1.9.1 packages: there's plenty of blame to go around but these should be ruby1.9 and libruby1.9, damn the consequences.
