Locale and LC_ALL [SOLVED]

Having a problem with locales regarding the LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES and LC_ALL variables:

core-08 etc # 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_UK.utf8
LC_CTYPE="en_UK.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_UK.utf8"
LC_TIME="en_UK.utf8"
LC_COLLATE=C
LC_MONETARY="en_UK.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_UK.utf8"
LC_PAPER="en_UK.utf8"
LC_NAME="en_UK.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_UK.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_UK.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_UK.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_UK.utf8"
LC_ALL=

I tried following this suggestion: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=19958 but still have the same issues.

My /etc/locale.gen file contains:

core-08 ~ # grep -v ^# /etc/locale.gen 
en_GB.UTF-8     UTF-8
en_GB   ISO-8859-1
en_US.UTF-8     UTF-8
en_US   ISO-8859-1

...and glibc version is current/glibc 2.5-4
Am I missing something here?

TIA.

Iain.

Re: Locale and LC_ALL [SOLVED]

you have default locale en_UK
but this locale doesn't present in your locale.gen
