Hi list,
Since one of the latest updates of my TW computers(*) mutt (running in XTerm, but it's the same in konsole) no longer is showing special characters (like accented ones). Are others seeing that, too? Any hints what to look for? I didn't change any of my settings...
(*) one is running TW20220421/mutt 2.2.3, the other one TW20220419/mutt 2.1.5 With LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 I get, e.g., "Zurück", LANG=en_DE.UTF-8 displays it as two questionmarks, "Zur??ck"
Yuck. So the problem is the locale setting: speedy:~% echo $LANG en_DE.UTF-8 However, that one does not exist! speedy:~% ls /usr/lib/locale/en_DE* ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/locale/en_DE*': No such file or directory Trying to find where LANG is actually set I eventually found .config/plasma-localerc: speedy:~% cat .config/plasma-localerc [Formats] LANG=en_DE.UTF-8 [Translations] LANGUAGE= Which seems to be set in System Settings -> Region -> Formats There a a *ton* of LANG definitions that just plain don't exist in the system. Why can I select those after all? locale seems to also look for a general definition like en.UTF-8 or en.utf8 if the sub-format cannot be found. But those don't exist either :( Should this be regarded as a bug?
