Summary:                    ext2root.mk uses LANG to specify C locale for 'du'
instead of LC_ALL
Description: 
ext2root.mk uses LANG enviroment variable to specify C locale for 'du', but
it should also specify LC_ALL, as only specifying LANG still causes 'du' to
use localised messages instead of english. As a result, not enough space is
used and creating the image fails.

I think that the correct setting is LC_ALL=POSIX
Applied. Please report back.

Thanks for pointing this out.

LC_ALL=C is the accepted convention used everywhere, not LC_ALL=POSIX

if you set LC_ALL, there's no point in setting LANG
