It turns out I was wrong about this. If I type |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
# LC_ALL=POSIX oowriter2 |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
they don't work for me either. Same goes for LC_ALL=C. All other locales on |
| 35 |
your list from locale -a they do work with. (Except en_GB.utf8 which results |
| 36 |
in a lot of errors on my system. That's why I use en_US.utf8. If you do wish |
| 37 |
to use UTF-8 you should follow the guide provided by Gentoo). So try changing |
| 38 |
your locale to something other than POSIX or C i.e. export LC_ALL=whatever. |
| 39 |
And start OOo from the prompt. |

| 41 |
To change your locale permanently you should change /etc/env.d/02locale and |
| 42 |
run env-update. You only need to set LC_ALL it will all other LC_ variables. |
