It may be of interrest to add a reference to localedef for people who have to use a non 'default' locale like en_US.ISO-8859-15, with a sample like : do 'localedef -c -i en_US -f ISO-8859-15 en_US.ISO-8859-15' to generate your favorite locale. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. [fresh install] 2. follow the localisation guide and #export LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-15 3. #locale Actual Results: locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory Expected Results: the guide should talk about manual generation of the missing locale through localedef
IMO it would be better to include locale-gen from debian. Then you'd just have to add 'en_US.ISO-8859-15 ISO-8859-15' to the config file and rerun.
I've added the localedef instruction to the localisation guide. It's of course just a matter of opinion what the best way is, I just opted to include at least one so I can fix this bug :) Committed to CVS. Thanks for reporting.
