Bug#349031: xlibs: [xkb] ill detection of the locale encoding

[Pierre Habouzit <madcoder@debian.org>]

Package: xlibs
Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4
Severity: normal


  when you have in /etc/locale.gen :

    en_US UTF-8
    fr_FR UTF-8

  and that I use (as you can see at the end of the bugreport)
LC_ALL/LANG set to fr_FR, X does not detects that the charmap is UTF-8
wich is odd.

  it results in broken (well in fact incomplete) compose key, that is
only able to create latin1 chars. e.g. <Multi_key> + E + = does not
produce € as it should.
