Title:
please kick out that annoying locale warning
Status in perl package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in perl package in Debian:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Whenever perl gets invoked, e.g. when dpkg runs, perl prints this
annoying multi-line warning, if some of the selected locales aren't
available:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = "en_US:en",
LC_ALL = (unset),
LC_PAPER = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_ADDRESS = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_MONETARY = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_NUMERIC = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_TELEPHONE = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_IDENTIFICATION = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_MEASUREMENT = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_TIME = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_NAME = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
I'm unable to see why only perl has to display such a warning, but all
programs written in another language just handle this fallback
silently.
It's not a big deal on a desktop system, where you usually just
install the missing locale - or where you already have it installed,
because otherwise your environment wouldn't be set like this.
But if you ssh to remote machines, then your language settings
automatically get forwarded. On those remote machines it might be
impossible to install the missing locales due to restricted user
permissions or due to limited space on embedded systems.
