[newbie] perl: warning: Setting locale failed.

[Meph Istopheles]

  I've been getting this (maybe only since updated things via
Mandrake Update last night -- re. my previous query):

[Sat Feb 10] [meph meph]$ perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
        LANGUAGE = "en_US:en",
        LC_ALL = (unset),
        LC_MESSAGES = "en_US",
        LC_TIME = "en_US",
        LC_NUMERIC = "en_US",
        LC_CTYPE = "en_US",
        LC_MONETARY = "en_US",
        LC_COLLATE = "en_US",
        LANG = "en"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

  Don't know much perl, so I've no idea where to start to correct
this -- whatever is the actual problem.
