Thanks, I have followed your advice and so I have upgraded the soft which I needed. However now (after upgrade) when I run a perl script I get this warning: perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = (unset), LC_ALL = (unset), LANG = "fr_FR.ISO-8859.1" are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). xemacs give the message: (1) (xim-xlib/warning) Can't set locale. Using C locale instead. With potato LC_ALL is unset but I don't have trouble. How can I set locale ? TIA. Thanks to you all who have helped me. -- Gerard
