So this all started when I wanted to install my custom daemon on my Beaglebone Black running Debian using update-rc.d mydaemon defaults 97
like I've done many times during it's development on my Mint host. And I'm greeted with:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.

update-rc.d: using dependency based boot sequencing
Which I subsequently tried to fix with dpkg-reconfigure locales
, to which it replies

I have no idea how to fix this as it refuses to let me install any packages or update anything... Anyone have any ideas? I'm stumped...
p.s. I've seen Configure Locales on Debian and this does not work for me (i.e. source /etc/default/locale
)
p.p.s I also checked /etc/locales.gen
shell and en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
is uncommented as it is supposed to be and the shell script suggests to run locale-gen
and I get
Generating locales (this might take a while)...

This worked on a debian container build. Thanks! – bryanmac – 2018-06-08T00:04:38.327
