Thanks. It just needed
On one of my machines all the LC_ variables are "POSIX".
I want them to be "en_US.utf8" as on my other machines.
I have the done the following (from the handbook)
1. cat /etc/local.gen (ignoring comments)
en_US ISO-8859-1
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
2. locale-gen

Yesterday depclean removed hal and then xdm wouldn't run.
Re-merging hal (with -1) fixed this, but again today depclean wants to
remove it.
I can easily add hal to world, but should xdm depend on it?

Yesterday many gnome-apps were updated to 2.32.
There is a problem with evolution's addr book, but for me that is minor.
However, the gnome panel doesn't work. It starts, remains running,
cannot be killed (even with -9) but does not display the panel.

The trouble is open files, at least some of which appear to be related
