"Missing character set"



I've been getting the following error popping up while installing
various packages:

The font
"-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-180-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1,*-r-*"\
 does not support all the required character sets for the curren\
t locale "LC_CTYPE=en_US;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=C;LC_COLLATE=C;LC_\
MONETARY=C;LC_MESSAGES=C;LC_PAPER=C;LC_NAME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TE\
LEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=C;LC_IDENTIFICATION=C"
  (Missing character set "ISO8859-1")
  (Missing character set "ISO8859-1")

I've gone through the mailing list archives and only found references to
a problem with msttcorefonts back in September. I update my system with
the latest Sid packages every few days so this really shouldn't be
related. Here's the output of 'locale charmap' and 'env' as suggested in
an archived post. Any help is greatly appreciated. :)
