KDE konsole characters problem

Hi,

after a long time i am back to Arch on KDE5. Everything, as almost always, is smooth beside this problem.

I am from Slovenia and we use ščž characters. When i go to Konsole and if i press, for example, š i get:

<ffffffff><ffffffff>

Output from locale:
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
LANG=en_SI.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_SI.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_TIME=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="en_SI.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="en_SI.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_NAME=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_ALL=

Localectl output:

System Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8
       VC Keymap: slovene
      X11 Layout: n/a

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Re: KDE konsole characters problem

Look at the output of "locale -a", then fix /etc/locale.conf and re-run locale-gen.

Re: KDE konsole characters problem

And don't you think some locale is missing in "locale -a"?
Because it's one thing what you likely did in your bashrc and another thing which is the system locale? Notably since you'll likely not start konsole from some bash?


Hint: Brits don't speak ASCII, thus en_GB.UTF8 is not the same as C ;-)
So either fix locale.conf or uncomment en_GB.UTF-8 in /etc/locale.gen (and rebuild the locales)
