[Fedora-i18n-list] locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory

[Johan Henes]

Hi again, Akira !

I have tried what You suggests, with no result... :

[root at notes root]# printenv |egrep '(LC_*|LANG)'
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
[root at notes root]#

.... - Looks that You're right, but :

[root at notes root]# localedef -i en_US -c -f UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8
[root at notes root]# locale
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
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
....

Same thing - also tried to reinstall glibc-common, with same result. 
(Also same result with a reboot between 'localedef- and 'locale', or
after the glibc-reinstall.

Even tried to copy a "locale-archive" from another computer - same
thing...

Am I doing something wrong ??

Best regards,

Johan
