I've been trying to get my mutt to display iso-8859-1 characters for 5 days
now, and I'm not sure where to look anymore. It seems that the programs
don't like LC_CTYPE set to something else than C. The system is running mutt
1.0.1i on Debian Slink/i386
I read from some Mutt webpage that perl is pretty verbose regarding these
locale problems.. I've tried with LC_CTYPE set to fi_FI de iso_8859_1 en_US
finnish etc etc.. nothing seems to work with mutt
$ export LC_CTYPE=en_US
$ perl
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LC_ALL = (unset),
LC_CTYPE = "en_US",
LANG = "C"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
$ ls /usr/share/locale/|grep en
en
en_CA
en_DK
en_GB
en_IE
en_US
I'd be grateful if you could CC me the reply as I'm not on the list
kind regards,
Dominique L. Bouix
