Thanks, I have followed your advice and so I have upgraded the soft
which I needed.
However now (after upgrade) when I run a perl script I get this warning:

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
	LANGUAGE = (unset),
	LC_ALL = (unset),
	LANG = "fr_FR.ISO-8859.1"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

xemacs give the message: 

(1) (xim-xlib/warning) Can't set locale.
Using C locale instead.

With potato LC_ALL is unset but I don't have trouble.

How can I set locale ?

TIA.

Thanks to you all who have helped me.
