UTF-8 default



Hi,

Is there any reason why UTF-8 seems to be the default in Debian nowadays? I
installed sid with d-i (current businesscard as of 2004-07-21) and noticed
that LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (a locale that was not even generated); this
confused aterm and probably other applications.

A friend of mine installed sarge with d-i today (ie. current businesscard as
of 2004-07-22) and now his x-chat is suddenly spewing out UTF-8 on IRC. Are
we copying Red Hat's classic bugs here? :-)
