Hi,
after setting LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 on my env locate.mklocatedb seems broken,
resetting LC_ALL=C is a workaround.

$ export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
$ doas /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb
sort: Illegal byte sequence
locate.mklocatedb: cannot build locate database
$ export LC_ALL=C
$ doas /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb

Should we run weekly(8) with LC_ALL=C to be sure that locate.updatedb runs 
correctly ? 

 Cheers
  Giovanni
