Hello Karl, I've found how I get LC_ALL="". I use to ssh to various machines with various supported locale. To avoid a lot of messages about "You have unsupported locale", I have following lone in my .bashrc: eval export $(locale) This line does "the best effort" - if the locale I really want is supported, it uses my locale; else, it sets to POSIX. As a side-effect, I get export LC_ALL="".
So, there is a reason for such settings. However, I can add a workaround to my .bashrc... Thank you.
