Hmm, I must have missed it out on my system (but it still works with the group named locate). > 3)Another message state with regard to glibc "upgrade > /etc/locales.build to /etc/local.gen then run > /etc/locals.build". Words to that effect. How the heck > do I do that? Copy the contents of one to the other and then run # locale-gen. My /etc/locale.gen shows: ========================================= # /etc/locale.gen: list all of the locales you want to have on your system # # The format of each line: # <locale> <charmap> # # Where <locale> is a locale located in /usr/share/i18n/locales/ and # where <charmap> is a charmap located in /usr/share/i18n/charmaps/. # # All blank lines and lines starting with # are ignored. # # For the default list of supported combinations, see the file: # /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED # # Whenever glibc is emerged, the locales listed here will be automatically # rebuilt for you. After updating this file, you can simply run `locale-gen` # yourself instead of re-emerging glibc. en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8 en_GB ISO-8859-1 en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 en_US ISO-8859-1 ========================================= HTH. -- Regards, Mick
