Fixed it here. All it took was running "locale-gen" to fix my locales. |
| 27 |
I read something recently about a bug (since fixed) in IIRC util-linux |
| 28 |
that caused locale issues, but didn't worry much about it since I only |
| 29 |
read English anyway. However, I think what must have happened is that |
| 30 |
glibc was upgraded while this bug was active, and the locale-gen that |
| 31 |
glibc ebuilds normally run as part of the upgrade failed. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
I'd known about the problem for awhile, but it wasn't anything high |
| 34 |
priority as everything seemed to continue to work despite the k3b warning |
| 35 |
and a few similar warnings compiling things. However, after writing the |
| 36 |
above, I decided to look into it a bit, and sure enough quick-fix. /etc/ |
| 37 |
locales.gen was still set correctly, but for whatever reason, probably |
| 38 |
the above bug, it hadn't run properly the last time it had been run, so I |
| 39 |
didn't have a valid locale. Rerunning locales-gen manually was a simple |
| 40 |
enough fix, once I figured out that was the problem. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
So run locales-gen and see if that fixes it. I didn't even have to |
| 43 |
update my environment as that was right, it was simply pointing to a |
| 44 |
locale config that didn't exist where it was supposed to, and locales-gen |
| 45 |
was all it took to fix it. |
