--- Comment #2 from Colin S <bugs.kde....@zetafleet.com> --- On Plasma 6.3.4, I can confirm this issue. KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.13.0 Qt Version: 6.8.2 ``` […] org.kde.kded.smart[2748]: Detected locale "C" with character encoding "ANSI_X3.4-1968", which is not UTF-8. Qt depends on a UTF-8 locale, and has switched to "C.UTF-8" instead. If this causes problems, reconfigure your locale. See the locale(1) manual for more information.

Some earlier version of Plasma did fill my `~/.config/plasma-localerc` with a lot of C locales which caused this warning to appear for all user processes (the related bug #438290 tracks missing "C.UTF-8" option in the kcm) but after fixing that, these warnings still appear in the helper processes. Let me know what other information I can provide. Thanks! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
