[gentoo-user] Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C

[Miernik <public@public.miernik.name>]

I installed Gentoo recently, and have the following problem: In xterm I
cannot see non-ASCII chars, when I 'cat' a file with UTF-8 characters,
garbage comes out. In other applications (gnumeric, firefox), UTF-8
functions correctly. How to fix it?

When I start another XTerm from one XTerm, I see this message in the old
XTerm:

Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C

Some diags:

miernik@przehyba ~ $ locale

LANG="en_DK.UTF-8"
miernik@przehyba ~ $ cat /etc/locale.gen | grep -v "^#"
en_DK.UTF-8 UTF-8
miernik@przehyba ~ $


I re-emerged xterm, x11-libs/libX11, glibc, but didn't help.

Any ideas?
