Hello,
I have a problem with my Kubuntu 6.06 setup. When I install anything I get this error:
| Code: | perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = "es_ES:es:en_GB:en",
LC_ALL = "es_ES",
LC_TYPE = "es_ES",
LANG = "es_ES@euro"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
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

I installed Kubuntu 6.06 from a CD last week. It was a new installation, not an upgrade.
Any idea about how I could solve it? I looked for a solution in the Ubuntu and Kubunut forums and in Google, but it's a mess. Apparently a lot of people has this problem, but there are no (easy) solutions. At least there is no an official solution to this problem.
Frankly, I don't know if it is important or not, but it's quite annoying. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Javier

Hello,
it seems that I've been able to solve my problem  . The solution was much easier that I thought.
This is the /etc/environment that the Kubuntu installer set up:
| Code: | PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:
/usr/games"
LANG="es_ES.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="es_ES:es:en_GB:en"
LC_ALL=es_ES
LC_TYPE=es_ES
|
I just edited it (sudo pico /etc/environment), and changed it to:
| Code: | PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:
/usr/games"
##LANG="es_ES.UTF-8"
##LANGUAGE="es_ES:es:en_GB:en"
##LC_ALL=es_ES
##LC_TYPE=es_ES
LANG=es_ES.UTF-8
|
Now, everything seems to work.
Javier
