Steps to Reproduce
- Install. Choose English language
- Enable SSH and log in
- Various commands generate locale errors, e.g.
sudo apt install mc
(after, sudo apt update),sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
or I see these a lot when building software using the autotools

Additional Information
I live in Spain, so perhaps the locale is set to British English based on my location.
Fix
Make sure the locale is included/uncommented in /etc/locale.gen
and regenerate locales with sudo locale-gen
