Xlib happens to have its own set of locales, and it happens to have the uncommon locale en_GB.UTF8 not defined. I think en_US.UTF8 is defined so you could add an alias for this to the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/locale.alias Then you shouldn't get this warning. I guess that Redhat has this alias or the whole locale installed. > > Feel free to submit a bug report under UI-general (because this > affects the currency symbol everywhere, not just in reports). I think this is only a "reports" bug. I had always thought it has been filed under #84604, but I just saw that #84604 is guppi related, and ours not. If you want I will file a new bug report, I never could display multi byte characters in reports. > > In the short term you can probably just sent the LANG in your .profile > or .cshrc file.

It is related to all encodings which use more than one byte to encode one character.
