I've a problem while creating UTF-8 locale with this command line :
localedef -v -i en_US -f utf8 en_US.utf8

locale isn't created. I have the following error :

More over it seems there is a problem with utf8 locales and xterm too : When I do export LC_ALL=en_US, xterm is working. But when I do export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8, I have no prompt.

Hello, I don't know what "-v" is good for, but without this there are no errors.
Comment by Benoit C (benoitc) - Wednesday, 23 February 2005, 15:33 GMT
the v is verbose mode . SO without it sure you have no message but the problem is still there.

Oh, my manpages seems to be incomplete! The page (http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?localedef+1) says "-v, --verbose Generate extra warnings about errors that are normally ignored".

This task is now 8 months old. Do you have still the problem, Benoit?

en_US.utf8 is created with glibc. No need to do this now. So maybe this bug could be closed yes.
