[Freeipa-users] shouldn't freeipa work by default?

[Harald Dunkel]

Hi folks,

*ipa help topics* gives me

# ipa help topics
ipa: ERROR: System encoding must be UTF-8, 'ANSI_X3.4-1968' is not supported. Set
LC_ALL="C.UTF-8", or LC_ALL="" and LC_CTYPE="C.UTF-8".
# env | egrep LANG\|LC
# echo $?
1

Shouldn't the command line interface work by default? Why not silently
assume UTF-8 and continue?

Printing a warning might be OK.


Regards
Harri
