Re: [arch-general] Where's my locale gone?

2014-11-03 Thread Mauro Santos
ever 'locale -a' outputs. The output of 'locale -a' should include the locale you want, if it doesn't then you have to double check /etc/locale.gen and rerun locale-gen. Another shot in the dark, try with a new user and set the shell to bash, just to add another data point and dismiss anything weird going on with the shell you are using. No more ideas here. This is most probably caused by something you might have changed, the trouble is always finding what. -- Mauro Santos
