If your locale is set correctly, then SVN will work correctly, too. What
you showed above is a list of locales that are /available/ on the
system, not the locale that's actually active. That's set via the LANG
or LC_* environmen variables. I bet that if you type "locale" at the
shell prompt, you'll get neither of the ones you list above.
Here's the output on one of the Unix boxes I have here (also a Debian
box, BTW):
$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
And this is in /etc/environment:
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
