Seems strange.
Not strange. Unfamiliar maybe. This file replaced the same use of it
in the /etc/environment file. And there have been other attempts as
well. I expect it will go away in the future and be replaced with yet
another configuration.
The easiest way to fix it is this way:
# dpkg-reconfigure locales
[...configure en_US.UTF-8 for generation and select None for the
system locale...]
Did that Bob and selected None.
And what are the new contents of /etc/default/locale?
cat /etc/default/locale
root@frank-debian:/home/frank# cat /etc/default/locale
#LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Unexpected..I thought it would be empty ?
I expect they will have nothing but comments there now. It is always
good to verify actions like this.
At that point if it isn't too much inconvenience then I would
reboot. Because that would ensure that all of the running daemons of
the system get the new setting.
Will do.
