[opensuse] 11.2_update & now: LC_CTYPE: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8)
I'm having problems with a core dump in perl and thought to try updating my 11.2 dist w/the latest updates from the suse 11.2_update server, one of which was a minor update to perl. It didn't solve that problem, unfortunately, but it did create a new one for me: Bonus! (ARG!). Now I'm getting a warning spit out in various utils at frequent intervals, like in BASH, every time I use auto-complete (!): bash: warning: setlocale: LC_CTYPE: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8) It also happens in other programs like when I launch gvim: (process:22785): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library. Using the fallback 'C' locale. Anyone know what broke and how I can fix it? My env vars haven't changed -- the lang vars are set to : # printenv | egrep 'LANG|LC' LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 I love UTF-8, but the implementation might have better given the acronym, 'UPF-8' for Universal _P_ain Format. *sigh* Help?

I just now tried that, but it doesn't remove the error message, however changing LC_CTYPE does -- but that doesn't really help, since I need my CTYPE to be UTF-8. It was working before the update -- I didn't think an update would normally cause problems like this... :-( linda -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
