You need to specify all locales for your system in /etc/locale.gen, the call locale-gen once to generate them all for you. EDIT: The /etc/locale.gen was the file I set when using Debian. I'm using Ubuntu now, and the configuration file is /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local. Check your locale-gen man page to make sure. share|improve this answer answered May 27 '13 at 3:11 xpt 1,91632857 So would something like cat "en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8" > /etc/locale.gen or to the Ubuntu path,

(A summary of C.UTF-8 vs en_US.UTF-8 here, but happy for input on which locale @wch had in mind). wch commented Oct 8, 2014 I'm not an expert in this stuff, but I think that en_US.UTF-8 would be better, since it defines proper sorting for non-ASCII characters, while C_UTF-8 does not -- it probably just uses the unicode value for sorting. For example, in en_US.UTF-8, all the a's with accents come before b: > sort(c('A', 'a', 'Ä', 'ä', 'À', 'à', 'b')) [1] "a" "A" "à" "À" "ä" "Ä" "b" But it's not true in C.UTF-8: > sort(c('A', 'a', 'Ä', 'ä', 'À', 'à', 'b')) [1] "A" "a" "b" "À" "Ä" "à" "ä" So I think that, despite the pr
