 Posted: Sat Oct 07, 2017 6:23 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] KDE/Plasma 5 localization problem |
 |
|
Today I discovered something about an innocent bug I have been encountering for a long time. It’s about localization.
My system runs KDE/Plasma 5 unstable branch. Everything goes smooth, with one exception: a constantly returning locale error from within a terminal window: | Code: | | setlocale: unsupported locale setting |
Useful information came up today as I did a world update and some perl modules complained with a helpful explanation:
| Code: | perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = "en_US:nl",
LC_ALL = (unset),
LC_COLLATE = "C",
LC_MESSAGES = "C",
LANG = "nl_NL.UTF-8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). |
Naturally I listed some system information:
| Code: | OberonGentoo ~ # emerge --info
setlocale: unsupported locale setting
setlocale: unsupported locale setting

And it seems that Gentoo uses a variable called LANG whereas inside KDE/Plasma (or is it X?) a variable LANGUAGE is used. However, I may be wrong in this or even beside the point.
Some googling around did not provide any clues.
Anyway, help is appreciated.

Oh and I should of course add that plasma's system settings don't help out either:
| Code: | Available languages: <NONE>
Installed languages: American English, Nederlands |

| Forget this one. This installation was broken somehow. Closing |
