Title:
luit gives "Warning: couldn't find charset data for locale XXXX; using
ISO 8859-1."
Status in “x11-utils” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “x11-utils” source package in Hardy:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Binary package hint: x11-utils
Release: ubuntu 8.04.01 (Hardy).
x11-utils version 7.3+1 from http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main
When running "LANG=en_US luit ssh ancient-machine" or "LANG=en_US xterm -lc",
luit issues a warning:
"Warning: couldn't find charset data for locale en_US; using ISO 8859-1." (in
the xterm example, the warning will appear as the first line in the xterm).
This is because luit cannot find the correct locale.alias file. It
looks for /usr/lib/X11/locale/locale.alias, but that file is not
present (at least on hardy), it is in
/usr/share/X11/locale/locale.alias.
Quick-fix solution:
$ cd /usr/lib/X11
$ sudo mkdir locale
$ cd locale
$ sudo ln -s /usr/share/X11/locale/locale.alias .
Now "luit" behaves properly, at least for latin1 or latin9 type of
locales.
Better fix is likely to recompile luit with the correct paths
(encodings.dir also has an incorrect path: another /usr/lib/X11 vs
/usr/share/X11 mixup).
