First: localedef -i POSIX -f UTF-8 C.UTF-8 generates warnings and has exit code 1! So it is not suitable for scripting (at least with "set -e").
Looking at what debian does, they have a patch to generate a file named "C" in localedata/locales. While the "POSIX" file shipped with glibc contains only the ASCII characters, the "C" file generated by debian contains a lot more characters. So we should test whether the locale generated from "POSIX" is enough for the Gjs test suite. Otherwise, it is not worth adding it. If used, the full command (for scripting) should be: localedef --quiet -i POSIX -f UTF-8 C.UTF-8 || true note that --quiet prevents warnings to be generated, yet the exit code is 1.
