Openmandriva discriminates Berserk locale

[viking60]

I was finally able to update Openmandriva only to discover a sneaky conspiracy against the Berserks.
The Norwegian Locale is gone - May the Hammer of Thor strike you hard

Code: Select all

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
        LANGUAGE = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_ALL = (unset),
        LC_MEASUREMENT = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_MESSAGES = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_NUMERIC = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_MONETARY = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_TIME = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_IDENTIFICATION = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_TELEPHONE = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_ADDRESS = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_SOURCED = "1",
        LC_COLLATE = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_PAPER = "en_US.UTF-8",
        LC_CTYPE = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LC_NAME = "nb_NO.UTF-8",
        LANG = "nb_NO.UTF-8"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").


This nice message pops up every time I open the Konsole. I used to fix this in the kde settings but I am only using openbox now so I have to figure out where to set it.
keyboarddrake indicates that the norwegian locale is set. But those all important æøå and ÆØÅ do not work

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf indicates that norwgian locale is set:

Code: Select all

# Read and parsed by systemd-localed. It's probably wise not to edit this file
# manually too freely.
Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "system-keyboard"
        MatchIsKeyboard "on"
        Option "XkbLayout" "no"
        Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
        Option "XkbOptions" "compose:rwin"
EndSection


It indicates that it is set by systemd-localed but I don't have systemd-localed on my system.

Code: Select all

thomas@localhost /etc % systemd-
systemd-analyze                 systemd-loginctl             
systemd-ask-password            systemd-machine-id-setup     
systemd-cat                     systemd-notify               
systemd-cgls                    systemd-nspawn               
systemd-cgtop                   systemd-run                   
systemd-coredumpctl             systemd-stdio-bridge         
systemd-delta                   systemd-tmpfiles             
systemd-detect-virt             systemd-tty-ask-password-agent
systemd-inhibit                 

Have they forgotten to put it in there?

Hm I wonder if it is my openbox setup that might be causing this.
In Mageia the content of the menu.xml file suddenly turns up as clutter in the console.

[viking60]

I have updated OMA and the locale settings in the terminal are still bonkers.
Besides that everything works so it is no showstopper. But it is annoying so I had a look at /etc/locale/nb_NO.UTF-8/

And there the LC_CTYPE@ blinks red and indicates a broken symlink when listed with ls -l:

Code: Select all

LC_CTYPE-> ../UTF-8/LC_CTYPE

That might have something to do with it....

Hi Buddy's,

it's comes maybe thereof,
to be they are not really hackers,
more Guy-spezialists and konsole typer *bg*
you should login in the bugtracker and report this issue as bug, because,
the sound works also not really in the prompt and the next thing it's,
if we jump in the prompt, mus we use strg/ctrl+alt+F2 because on F1 it's the Xorg
on run with kdm .. or an other windowmanager .. there on 2014 what i use at moment.
but i don't know how it's if it's fresh install , where the xorg run now , on strg/ctrl +F1 or on F7
how ever, something is not right in the Bush .. but so far works OMLx not bad,
want say really well up to nfs
and the good thing is, Per Orwin works together in one pot together with OMLx peoples .. !
.. and that's saying what

best regards
Blacky

Yes that is good
Regarding the bug; I have already reported it.

https://issues.openmandriva.org/show_bug.cgi?id=913

Long time ago.. but it is hard to confirm since nobody else seems to have Norwegian locale.

This thing has potential but it needs a larger user base.

Mageia is king of the Mandriva spinoff's at the moment. It is good quality and stable without much surprises.

Aber es wäre schon gut wenn Openmandriva wieder Fuss fassen könnte

On IRC I got the tip to copy /usr/share/locale/UTF-8 to /etc/locale so I did

Code: Select all

sudo cp -avr /usr/share/locale/UTF-8 /etc/locale

And that did not fix it

[viking60]

Then I got the tip to symlink /usr/share/locale/ISO-8859-1 to /etc/locale/ISO-8859-1
So I did a

Code: Select all

sudo ln -s /usr/share/locale/ISO-8859-1  /etc/locale/ISO-8859-1

And that did not fix it either

The content of /etc/locale is now

Code: Select all

ISO-8859-1@ UTF-8/ en_ZM/ nb NO/ nb_NO.UTF-8/ nn_NO/ nn_NO.UTF-8/

I have no idea where en_ZM came from and I don't want nn_NO in there either

[Blackcrack]

whys do you copy all, ln -s the locales folder, that's all ..

but this troubles i do not have.. it works so far in german ..

best regards
blacky

[viking60]

Yeah They are only discriminating Norwegian Bokkmål berserks

[Blackcrack]

*llloooolllllll*

but the way it's free for you, i think fo go into as rpm-builder or something and fixing by self
or into the QA team

and btw, Per it is also under the OMLx programmer, if you be in the QA-Team, i bet, you can help him

best regards
Blacky

[viking60]

Yes Per Øyvind should be able to fix the norwegian locale
