For example, LANG or LANGUAGE or one of LC_* environment variables is a non-unicode locale (es_ES instead of es_US.UTF-8). Or maybe one of those variables has a value which is not supported in your /etc/locale.gen. Or maybe you have some gtk or gnome settings file in your home directory in a non-unicode encoding. However, gnome-shell-3.14 should have crashed the same way on your machine in that case. (In reply to Lagu from comment #0) > sep 08 19:53:53 7l5aQfP gnome-session[2000]: init/Date.prototype.toLocaleFormat@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/environment.js:111 line 111 in environment.js is return Shell.util_format_date(format, this.getTime()); So I am guessing that your LC_ALL or LC_TIME env variables are non-unicode, or maybe something is very strange with your system time. Hi, this is weird, this happend with the update, respect tha env variables, i generate all the locales with locale-gen -A, and here the info:
pipe@7l5aQfP ~ $ sudo localectl status
System Locale: LANG=es_CL.utf8
LC_NUMERIC=es_CL
LC_TIME=es_CL
LC_MONETARY=es_CL
LC_PAPER=es_CL
LC_MEASUREMENT=es_CL
VC Keymap: la-latin1
X11 Layout: latam
X11 Variant: deadtilde
pipe@7l5aQfP ~ $ locale
LANG=es_CL.utf8
LC_CTYPE="es_CL.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC=es_CL
LC_TIME=es_CL
LC_COLLATE="es_CL.utf8"
LC_MONETARY=es_CL
LC_MESSAGES="es_CL.utf8"
LC_PAPER=es_CL
LC_NAME="es_CL.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="es_CL.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="es_CL.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT=es_CL
LC_IDENTIFICATION="es_CL.utf8"
LC_ALL=
i remember other weird thing, in the ui of gnome it doesn't show the accents (รก) before this, bit it works in all the applications.
Hi, for some reason when i install the system the app localectl set a lot of env variables when teorically only most add the lang env unless otherwise specified, probably can be a bug but how works fine now most be fixed with some update, for fix this: 1) clean /etc/env.d/02locale 2) localectl set-locale LANG=<locale> -- ex <locale>=es_CL.utf8 Thx. Probably the real solution is to make gnome-shell more robust against wrong time locales (fall back to English?). Or at least make it print a better error message. i think its a good idea, but instead of gnome check the locale vars i prefer a simple program to do this to avoid gnome or others program start checking all the time the vars, add a error handling to gnome i think its a nice idea bevause this don't its the first error with confusing messages. Maybe it should be reported to upstream to suggest them to handle better this issue -> bugzilla.gnome.org |
