Yes; I am getting much the same writings about my locale encoding: $ locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE= 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= the warning is complaining about there being no en_US.utf8. The difference between what I have and what their warning about being the last five digits in that what I have is capitalized. I am assuming it doesn't really matter because everything seems to work correctly. My web search with this new knowledge wasn't much help. Apparentlythere is a difference between UTF-8 and utf8 (UTF-8 being the official standard and utf8 being perl's version of the standard) but I could not find anything concerning utf8 vs UTF8. Oh! I just looked at it with new eyes and see that I was accidentally dropping the hyphen and that it is saying that perl's version isn't installed. So now I am sure it doesn't matter! :-)~MIKE~(-: On Mon, Mar 30, 2015 at 7:07 PM, coverturtle wrote: > That message may be telling you that you are missing the locale file for > US, American English, UTF8 encoding. > in a terminal, type locale and then hit enter. > Here's what I get - you should get something similar: > 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= > > More info is available by typing "man locale". > > > > On 03/30/2015 06:55 PM, Michael Havens wrote: > > I got a good question: often when I am upgrading my system I get: > > Warning: No support for locale: en_US.utf8 > > My question is: isn't that our locale?
