Hi community,
Since one of the last updates gnome-terminal, tilda and playonlinux stopped working simultaneously.
Here is the output of
gnome-terminal
(process:5629): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal: Timeout was reachedI'm trying to solve the problems with gnome-terminal first. Maybe the issues with the other two apps will then vanish, too.
For the sake of completeness I'm appending the terminal output of the other two apps at the end as well. Maybe it helps. Everything I found on the internet and on this forum regarding my error messages were some locale related issues.
So I'm aware of these threads:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=180081
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=180103
However I'm already using the official vte3 package, /etc/locale.conf exists and contains:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8and I successfully ran 'sudo locale-gen' and 'sudo localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8".
The outputs of localectl and locale are:
$ localectl
System Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8
VC Keymap: de
X11 Layout: de,se
X11 Variant: ,
$ locale

$ locale -a

POSIX
es_US.utf8The last one seems suspicious to me. Even if 'es_US' actually exists, it is definitely wrong. 'en_US' or 'en_GB' is what I want. So I issued 'sudo grep -Irnw '/' -e "es_US" . 2>/dev/null' to find the flawed file. But it found tons of files in various places. I don't really know where to look first. What also concerns me are the error messages of the type 'locale: Cannot set LC_XXX to default locale: No such file or directory' and that there are no locales listed under 'C' for 'locale -a'. What to do next? Am I even on the right track?
Ah, and reinstalling gnome-terminal, tilda or playonlinux didn't change anything.
Thanks in advance.
PS: These are the error messages of the other two apps that I haven't yet sorted out.
tilda

I have the same problem with Tilda.

I partly solved the problem now.
Before calling 'sudo locale-gen' I accidentally uncommented es_US.UTF-8 instead of en_US.UTF-8. I ran 'sudo locale-gen' and 'sudo localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8"' again, set the correct language and region settings in gnome settings and restarted the session. Now gnome-terminal and playonlinux work again. Tilda still gives the same error message.

I can use Tilda now, but I had to remove all the config files.
#cd /home/cesar/.config/tilda/

Thanks that solved it for me, too.
