Bug#746415: gnome-terminal: will not start with non-utf-8 locale

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 3.12.3-2
Followup-For: Bug #746415

i'm seeing the same error where gnome-terminal refuses to start in a
non-UTF-8 locale.  In fact, on a machine that doesn't even have the
locales package installed, i can install gnome-terminal.

This suggests to me that there is (at least) a missing dependency
(gnome-terminal Depends: locales) and that gnome-terminal should also
produce a warning dialog box giving the user some clue rather than
silently terminating.
