Your LANG setting of "UTF-8" is plain wrong. There is no UTF-8
language. Please check the output of "locale" and then set LANG to
something that can be find in the output of "locale -a".
The keyboard is not affected by LANG, so if you want English error
messages and are using UTF-8, you should place the following in
your shell startup file
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
