Title: How To Set The Locale To Japanese
Post by: ShiroiKuma on December 19, 2004, 05:04:35 pm

Hi:

I want to do the following: browsing the web fith firefox save some Japanese webpages with their title as the filename, i.e. using Kanji in the filenames.

For this I thought you need to set the locale to JP UTF8.

I have the glibc-locale-ja-utf8 and glibc-locale-ja-eucjp packages installed.

Then I tried to do

Code: [Select]

export LC_ALL=ja_JP.utf8and get the following error:

Code: [Select]

bash: loadlocale.c:221: _nl_load_locale: Assertion `idx % __alignof__ (u_int32_t) == 0' failed.
Aborted
What is the problem?

When I try
[CODE]export LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucJP

Quote

I get no error but it saves the file as garbage, not with the Japanese file name.

I had this working under full debian on the Z by setting the locale to Japanese, so know it can be done.

Why do I get the above error though? What can I do about it?
