Only suggestion I can think of is to follow this:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/utf-8.xml
Finally, I found the problem. It wasn't linked to the locale. As you said, it was correctly set. The problem with emelFM2 was that it was expecting LC_MESSAGES to be explicitely set. This
is easily configurable.
However, I have a problem with the rendering of certain fonts. I'll start a new thread for this (problem rendering unicode characters).
Thanks for the help.
