Operating Systems Solaris /etc/default/init LANG Setting Not Working
# 8  
Old 11-16-2015
Okay, so that pointed me in the right direction. My terminal is sending the en_US.UTF-8 LANG setting.

What was curious the same configuration didn't produce the same results on the old server. What I found was that the old server didn't have the en_US.UTF-8 locale installed. So the terminal was attempting to set it but it wasn't accepted on the other side and dropped to the C locale by default.

Code:
bash-3.2# locale -a
C
POSIX
en_CA
en_CA.ISO8859-1
en_CA.UTF-8
en_US
en_US.ISO8859-1
en_US.ISO8859-15
en_US.ISO8859-15@euro
es
es_MX
es_MX.ISO8859-1
es_MX.UTF-8
fr
fr_CA
fr_CA.ISO8859-1
fr_CA.UTF-8
iso_8859_1

The new server has the locale after installing the North America (nam) region from disk. Doesn't look like I can remove en_US.UTF-8 without removing the entire nam region according to localeadm. Had the same trouble when attempting to just install en_US. I had to install all of nam.

Guess I just need to override it in the profiles for the application. Thanks for your help guys.

regfiledump

REGFILEDUMP(1)							The Regina Handbook						    REGFILEDUMP(1)

NAME

       regfiledump - Dump the contents of a Regina data file

SYNOPSIS

       regfiledump [ -f | -l | -n ] [ -c ] file [ packet-label ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       This utility dumps the contents of the given Regina data file to standard output in a human-readable format.

       If  a  list of packet labels is given on the command-line, only those packets will be output.  Otherwise all packets in the given file will
       be output.

OPTIONS

       -f (default)
	      Output full packet details.  The output for each packet will cover several lines, beginning with basic details (such as  the  packet
	      label and type) followed by the packet's long description.

       -l     Output a list of packet labels and types only, one packet per line.

       -n     Don't output any packets at all; this option forces a packet count (see option -c).

       -c     Finish the output with a total count of all packets in the file.

INTERNATIONALISATION

       If any packets contain international characters, Regina will attempt to convert these to your local character encoding as it writes them to
       the output.

       You can tell Regina what character encoding to use by setting standard locale-related environment variables,  such  as  LANG,  LC_CTYPE	or
       LC_ALL.

       For  example,  if  LANG is set to en_AU then output will be written in the Western European character set ISO-8859-1, and if LANG is set to
       en_AU.UTF-8 then output will be written in the universal character set UTF-8.

       Typically these environment variables will already be set for you when you install your GNU/Linux system, and  Regina  will  just  use  the
       right character set out of the box.  See your GNU/Linux system reference for further information on supporting different locales.

MACOS X USERS

       If  you	downloaded  a drag-and-drop app bundle, this utility is shipped inside it.  If you dragged Regina to the main Applications folder,
       you can run it as /Applications/Regina.app/Contents/MacOS/regfiledump.

WINDOWS USERS

       The command-line utilities  are	installed  beneath  the  Program  Files  directory;  on  some  machines  this  directory  is  called  Pro-
       gram Files (x86).  You can start this utility by running c:Program FilesReginaRegina 4.93in
egfiledump.exe.

       regina-gui.

AUTHOR

       This  utility was written by Benjamin Burton <bab@debian.org>.  Many people have been involved in the development of Regina; see the users'
       handbook for a full list of credits.
