Bibus/python locale not supported problem

[Tom Chilton]

Hi,

I am running Gentoo Linux.

I have emerge'd Bibus and everything seemed to go well.
When I try to start it from a shell I get:

tom@linuxbox ~ $ bibus
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/bibus/bibus.py", line 63, in ?
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,'en_US') #
use english if any problem
File "/usr/share/bibus/locale.py", line 381, in setlocale
return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting

and it does not run.

Can anyone suggest why?

I am in the UK and where I get the option I choose en_GB.
If this isn't a python problem sorry for bothering you all...

I am not subscribed to this list but I will check nabble for replies.

Thanks
Tom
