TOP POSTED SUMMARY: operator error. An incorrect setting of LANG and LC_ALL
were in /etc/profile.
They had been suggested by the guide, but were incorrectly done and override
the results of all the
02locale and locale.gen things.
Now one X restart later, k3b and perl and I are all happy.
Thanks for suggesting a re-reading, Daniel.

Anyway, I added .utf8 to the lines in my 02locale file, and it made no
difference at all.
I don't see utf8 in any of the outputs, and k3b and perl still don't like
it.
The outputs requested (plus my 02locale file) were:

Maybe locale-gen is not working properly at your system as perl says the
locales are not installed. What are the contents of /usr/lib/locale/?
I am guessing this as your locale output looks really weird. It does not
show the .utf8 parts. And en_EN also looks strange as it is not a valid
locale. It should be for instance LANG=en_US.utf8 like in 02locale. Plus the
error messages of missing
