Solving this problem usually involves installing the package

I think that is an ubuntu specific package

and generating the locale by
locale-gen en_US.UTF-8

I have found the locale under /etc/default/locale and /etc/environment.
Maybe you can change that to "C", but I don't know if that will cure all
your problems.
The strange thing is that I don't have those files.  So somewhere on my
system it picks en_US.UTF-8.  But where?


Does
grep -r 'en_US.UTF-8' /etc
show anything?

thrace:~# grep -r 'en_US.UTF-8' /etc
thrace:~#

nothing found...


On a freshly installed etch this shows:

/etc/environment:LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
/etc/locale.gen:en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
/etc/gdm/locale.conf:English(USA)       en_US.UTF-8
/etc/default/locale:LANG="en_US.UTF-8"

Weird.

yes in deed
