Bug Description
Binary package hint: kde-guidance
I get the following exception when trying to view the "Monitor & Display" module in kcontrol:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 8, in kcontrol_
File "/var/lib/
return DisplayApp(parent, name)
File "/var/lib/
self.xsetup = XSetup(
File "/var/lib/
self.
File "/var/lib/
for row in XorgconfCVSRead
File "/var/lib/
fhandle = codecs.
File "/usr/lib/
setlocale(
File "/usr/lib/
return _setlocale(
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
error: *** runFunction failure
;
This does not happen, if I start kcontrol with the "C" locale.
LANG=C kcontrol
LANG is "de_DE.UTF-8" here.
The problem is probably not with kde-guidance itself, but a package it relies on, so please change it accordingly.
Seems to be that my locale "de_DE.UTF-8" was not supported anymore (since some upgrade the last days).
I've run "dpkg-reconfigure locales" and now it works.
However, this should not cause the kcontrol module to fail IMHO.
