I've never seen this before, and I'm not sure what to do to fix it. I searched the archives, and some folks noted an issue related to StarOffice, but SO is not installed. I was unable to find any other solutions in the archives. The problem appears regardless of shell, and I do have both ASCII and US_ASCII symlinked to lt_LN.ASCII in /usr/share/locale, and lt_LN.ASCII contains LC_COLLATE, LC_TIME and LC_CTYPE only. Handy hints? Do I need to find and add something? % perl -v perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LC_ALL = (unset), LC_CTYPE = "ISO8859-1", LANG = (unset) are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
