[Reportbug-maint] Bug#840898: reportbug: Show the LANGUAGE variable

[Robert Luberda]

Package: reportbug
Version: 6.6.6
Severity: wishlist


The LANGUAGE variable is more important than LANG[1], for example
the following command shows dpkg's help in German, not in Polish:

  LANGUAGE=de_DE.UTF8 LANG=pl_PL.UTF8 dpkg --help

With LANGUAGE information printed it would be easier to analyze 
bugs like #840610. Could you please add it to the `Locale:' line?

Regards,
robert
