Perl spits out a lot of annoying warnings when using a non existing
locale. And it does this for any perl script.
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = (unset),
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "jhfjkghf"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
However, I don't say that the problem does not exist in Python. I see a
lot those kind of errors with Perl because I log into servers that don't
have my locale installed. There is not much to do because ssh does not
allow to remove some variables from environment that have been added
server side (with AcceptEnv). It would be better to switch silently to C
locale than to display a lot of useless warnings or just stop.
