Hi Stephen,

Thanks for help. 

For the moment, I shall only answer to the above issue.

I use Debian Stretch. I saw the above message, but i verified my locale config 
and it seems to me to be ok. I have no problem with it. See

$ echo $LANG$ echo $LANG
Fr_FR.utf8


$ cat /etc/environment
(empty)


$ locale
LANG=fr_FR.utf8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_TIME="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_PAPER="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_NAME="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.utf8"
LC_ALL=


$ locale -a
C
C.UTF-8
fr_FR.utf8
POSIX

$ cat /etc/default/locale
#  File generated by update-locale
LANG="fr_FR.UTF-8"


So I don't understand the error message about locale. If necessary, I can ask 
for help on Debian mailing list

Bye

Klaus
