+basewiki_brokenlinks.t fails when running dpkg-buildpackage in non-English environment : it greps for an (non-)error message that is i18n'd. This of course does not happen when building in a proper chroot environment... which happens to fail as well, for other reasons, but this will be for another bug.

+- `LANG=C` : fails
+- `LANGUAGE=` : fails
+- `LANGUAGE=C` : works!
