Hi, I just compiled / build GRASS 7.0 from source and got the following
error message when starting up GRASS:

Popup 'Python error':
---------------------
Cannot set locale to ".

Messages on command line:
--------------------------
Failed to set LC_ALL to None.UTF-8

(process:14771): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library

(process:14771): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.

These messages appear twice; directly at start up and then again when the
Layer manager and Display open.

My system information:
-----------

Comment(by pvanbosgeo):

This problem started with the latest revision. However, I installed this
latest revision after upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10, so perhaps that has
broken something concerning the locale?

I see the Milestone is set to 6.4.3. Just to make sure, these problems are
with GRASS 7.0, not with GRASS 6.4

Comment(by pvanbosgeo):

When starting R from within GRASS, I am getting the following lines, which
do not show when started R normally (not from within GRASS) from the
command line:

During startup - Warning messages:
1: Setting LC_CTYPE failed, using "C"
2: Setting LC_COLLATE failed, using "C"
3: Setting LC_TIME failed, using "C"
4: Setting LC_MESSAGES failed, using "C"
5: Setting LC_PAPER failed, using "C"
6: Setting LC_PAPER failed, using "C"
7: Setting LC_MEASUREMENT failed, using "C"

I am guessing this has the same underlying problem?

this error should be avoided in r53620. Can you try it out, please?

> Messages on command line:

Strange, what says

{{{
env | grep LANG
}}}

and

{{{
locale -a
}}}

?

do you have this locale installed? Check `locale -a`...

your currently used locale seems to be available. Hm, strange.

just tried r53623 and only one error message on the command line (Failed
to set LC_ALL to None.UTF-8 (unsupported locale setting)). No pop-up
window with error message anymore and no error messages when starting R
from within GRASS.

Comment(by marisn):

Paulo, could you, please, try GRASS 7 after r59176 ? I changed a bit
language overriding code in startup script to avoid problems like you had
and still be able to keep language override.

Hi Marisn,

Yes, there is no error message anymore.. thanks!

Should I mark this ticket as fixed, or will you do that?

Paulo
