locales & perl

["s. keeling" <keeling@spots.ab.ca>]

Hi.  I've figured out how to supply/generate my chosen locale
(dpkg-reconfigure locales), and now I have:

   export LC_ALL="en_CA.ISO-8859-1"
   export LANG="en_CA.ISO-8859-1"
   export LANGUAGE="en_CA.ISO-8859-1"

in my ~/.bash_profile, but perl doesn't appear to get it:

   perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
   perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
       LANGUAGE = "en_CA.ISO-8859-1",
       LC_ALL = "en_CA.ISO-8859-1",
       LANG = "en_CA.ISO-8859-1"
       are supported and installed on your system.
   perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").


So, How do I:

  - fix this so perl knows what to do?

  - tell perl to shut up about locales if this can't be fixed?

Thanks.
