What to do when bitbake says " Sad Locale"

If bitbake says:


Please use a locale setting which supports utf-8. Python can't change the filesystem locale after loading so we need a utf-8 when python starts or things won't work. You need a locale. My example will target en_US.UTF-8. You can choose your favorite (native?) locale as long as it's UTF8.

Ubuntu/Debian


tt@7e801839f06a:~/build$ sudo locale-gen en_US.UTF-8

Generating locales (this might take a while)...

 en_US.UTF-8... done

Generation complete. tt@7e801839f06a:~/build$ sudo update-locale LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 LANG=en_US.UTF-8 tt@7e801839f06a:~/build$ export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
