Find it out:

$ strace -eopen locale -a

Thatâ€™s the way it looks like when everythingâ€™s OK:

> $ strace -eopen locale -a
> open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3
> open("/lib/i686/cmov/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY) = 3
> open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
> open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
> open("/usr/lib/locale", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 3
> open("/usr/share/locale/locale.alias", O_RDONLY) = 3
> C
> de_DE.utf8
> POSIX
> Process 2577 detached

Maybe it helps.

Regards, Mathias
