Description
I get the error
ValueError: unknown locale: en_NG
after I create a new Django 1.5 project, run "python manage.py syncdb" and attempt to define a superuser. This was also a bug in Django 1.4 when it was first released but was eventually fixed.

Thanks for the traceback.

We should definitely catch ValueError

As you can see by comparing the patches, I chose a different fix for stable (minimal potential impact) and master (bit of refactoring).
Please run the command with the
--traceback
option and provide the full traceback on the ticket.
