Yes, you do ;-)
Certain programs, in this case luatex, require correct locale setup to
work. It would be nice if we could detect these problems beforehand and
warn the user with a clear message, but also this is non-trivial.
If the locale are incorrectly setup, there is not much to do but fail.
Think about: You could configure to set your shell to
/bin/IamNotThereBash
and it would of course create a lot of problems. Maintainer scripts
cannot work around all possible misconfiguration of a system.
