STINNER Victor added the comment: On my FreeBSD 11 VM, I only have the "C" locale, not "UTF-8 C" locale:
[haypo@freebsd ~/prog/python/master]$ locale -a|grep ^C C But CPython still asks me to use a non existent locale (newlines added for readability): [haypo@freebsd ~/prog/python/master]$ ./python Python runtime initialized with LC_CTYPE=C (a locale with default ASCII encoding), which may cause Unicode compatibility problems. Using C.UTF-8, C.utf8, or UTF-8 (if available) as alternative Unicode-compatible locales is recommended.
