Package: tpb
Version: 0.6.3-1

After changing de system's locale to anything other than C (tested with
en_US.*, es_ES.* and es_VE.*), tpb will not show anything on screen.
Same thing happens if the system's locale is C but the user's locale is
anything other than C.

If the system's/user's locale is anything other than C, doing

$ LANG=C tpb -d

show proper behavior.

I have all the xfonts-*-transcoded packages installed. I also tried with
a TrueType font having an UTF-8 encoding.

Seems tpb doesn't handle locales very well. As a workaround, I hardcoded
the LANG=C in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90tpb.

If you can't apt-get it, it isn't useful or doesn't exist.
