[Bug 965340] Change default locale for postgresql to UTF-8

http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=965340 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=965340#c4 --- Comment #4 from Reinhard Max --- (In reply to Marcus Rückert from comment #3)

so the rest of the system *is* using that locale even if nothing is set in /etc/sysconfig/language.

/etc/sysconfig/language used to be the location that defines the system locale. In case that has changed between 42.1 and current Tumbleweed I might have to fix PostgreSQL to properly pick it up again, but I don't think it makes sense to set a different default locale for PostgreSQL than the system locale.

also during the discussion it was pointed out that using encoding UTF-8 but leaving collate/ctype at C might actually be faster.
