Ever since installing Sarge last month I've been plagued with these
locale error messages from perl apps like mandb & syslogd-listfiles.
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
or
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = "en_US:en_GB:en",
LC_ALL = "en_US",
LANG = "en_US"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
This when LANG, LANGUAGE & LC_ALL are indeed set as shown above
in the environment.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> echo $LANG $LANGUAGE $LC_ALL
en_US en_US:en_GB:en en_US
I finally got this to go away using the following steps:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> dpkg -P localepurge
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> apt-get install locales localeconf
after configuration,
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp> cp /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive .
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> dpkg -P locales localeconf
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp> md /usr/lib/locale/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp> mv locale-archive /usr/lib/locale/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> apt-get install localepurge
I'm sure I took the long route and hope one of you can tell me what the
easy way would have been.
TIA,
Mike
