<para>Sometimes it is possible to fix this by removing the charmap part of the
locale specification, as long as that does not change the character map that
Glibc associates with the locale (this can be checked by running the
<command>locale charmap</command> command in both locales). For example, one
would have to change &quot;de_DE.ISO-8859-15@euro&quot; to
&quot;de_DE@euro&quot; in order to get this locale recognized by Xlib.</para>
<para>Here Xlib expects that the character map will be listed in uppercase
notation with canonical dashes. For instance, "ISO-8859-1" rather than
"iso88591". It is sometimes possible to fix this by removing the charmap part
of the locale specification, as long as that does not change the character
map that Glibc associates with the locale. This can be checked by running
the <command>locale charmap</command> command in both locales. For example,
one would have to change "de_DE.ISO-8859-15@euro" to "de_DE@euro" in order to
get this locale recognized by Xlib.</para>
<para>Other packages can also function incorrectly (but may not necessarily
display any error messages) if the locale name does not meet their expectations.
