LC_ALL & LANG settings

["Eric d'Halibut" <eric.halibut@gmail.com>]

I"m getting these pesky messages when I run certain commands (e.g.
apt-get) as root:

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
	LANGUAGE = (unset),
	LC_ALL = (unset),
	LANG = "en_US.utf8"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

I am always mystified by this stuff. How can I fix those errors?



Thanks,

No no no, my fish's name is Eric, Eric the fish. He's an halibut. I am
not a looney! Why should I be tarred with the epithet looney merely
because I have a pet halibut?
