Hi,
Since I started installing etch I get this error (when something
uses perl):
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = (unset),
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

I haven't got a thing in my fai config space saying a thing about
locales.
I can let the messages go away by installing the locales packages
and setting that locale as installed. But that doesn't solve my
question. Where is it set that the locale must be "en_US.UTF-8" ?
Set the locale you want in the FAI debconf settings. For example, we
don't set a default locale here, so /srv/fai/config/debconf/FAIBASE
contains:
locales locales/default_environment_locale select None
but we also do generate a standard set of locales, so we also have
the following line:
locales locales/locales_to_be_generated multiselect en_GB
ISO-8859-1, en_GB.ISO-8859-15 ISO-8859-15, en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8,
en_GB.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8, en_IE ISO-8859-1, en_IE.UTF-8 UTF-8,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ISO-8859-15, en_US ISO-8859-1, en_US.ISO-8859-15
ISO-8859-15, en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
