   I get the same thing. It's LC_CTYPE that's causing the problem. I was half
 thinking that it was something related to gnome, but I haven't worked very
 hard to fix it. Unsetting that variable makes the warning go away, whether
 that fixes the problem or not.

Viren: Is that in an X session, possibly running gnome?

I've had this too.  Never have figured what it was about, but it
happened only in X, where I use gnome.

Yes, it is gnome. And, as Doug suggested, it stops when you unset
LC_CTYPE. I don't think it is actually doing anything other than
irritating me. :-)

/me has the very same problem, running Gnome as well.

Locale issues on -current

2000-07-21 Thread Viren R.Shah


I installed a recent snapshot of -current (a week ago) and I keep
getting the following warnings:

[vshah@vorpal] /etc perl
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LC_ALL = (unset),
LC_CTYPE = "en_US",
LANG = (unset)
are supported and installed on your system.



If I set the appropriate env vars, I get:

vorpal# perl -v
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LC_ALL = "C",
LC_CTYPE = "en_US",
LANG = "en_US.ISO_8859-1"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

This is perl, v5.6.0 built for i386-freebsd

Any ideas as to what I need to do? I tried searching the archives with
no success

[If this is more appropriate for -questions, let me know]
