Aoki-san, Thank you for your response. As you say, this issue may well be due to ibus.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but it's strange that ibus should depend on a locale. It's plugin-based and designed to handle all sorts of languages (and other phonetic alphabets) AT THE SAME TIME. You can input Russian, International Phonetic Alphabet, Korean, Japanese, etc. using ibus in a single text box without restarting ibus. Then, what locale should you set for it? Or is there any "generic" UTF-8 locale? like "C.UTF-8" or "anylanguage.UTF-8" or some such thing? > Your bug report indicates that you are in LANG=C > for your machine. Yes! > Do you have locales-all installed? If not install it or configure > locale package to enable some UTF-8 locale with: > > $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure locale Thanks. Actually I do have en_US.UTF-8 and ja_JP.UTF-8 generated. > Also, make sure that /etc/default/local uses UTF-8 locale as default > for LANG like: > > # File generated by update-locale > LANG="en_US.UTF-8" > LANGUAGE="en_US:en" I'm not sure if I can do that. en_US.UTF-8 is a terrible setting. What files do you think the following command remove? $ rm [A-Z]* Under en_US.UTF-8, it deletes files starting with A-Z and a-y ! because the collating sequence is changed from A-Za-z to AaBbCc . . . YyZz . Another example is that the output of "ls -l" depends on the locale. I write and use a lot of shell scripts and I cannot accept that their behaviors depend on the locale and I don't want to start all my scripts with "LANG=C; export C", and I cannot escape from the habit of typing something like "rm [A-Z]*". I'm not complaining to YOU. I just thank you for your response. Maybe, should I ask the ibus folks?
