[SOLVED]Terminal emulators instantly crash.

Hi, I have a problem with my new arch linux installation, my terminal emulators instantly close/crash when i open them.

I'm talking about xfce terminal emulator and Alacritty here.

Although it seems not to be the case with kitty terminal emulator.

I thought that it was some display manager problem so i changed from LightDM to GDM but to no avail.

Does someone know how to fix this problem or where should i start searching for it's cause?

Thanks for all the help.

Assuming you're using bash, it sounds like https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/76351

Yes! I just needed to setup my locale properly since i probably messed up upon configuration of the system. Thank you!
