i18n fails when default locale is not english

I put `activate :i18n, :langs => [:de]` in *config.rb* and rebooted

When I load the page I am shown that all my translations are missing. The worst part is that middleman is still looking for the en.yml locale! 

```
translation missing: en.pages.home.title
```

Why would it look for en at all if :de is the only locale I specified? My locale folder is nothing special either and lives at */locales/de.yml*

I'm running version 3.0.0 on ruby 1.9.3-p194
