Hi everyone. Sorry for the forward, however I figured I would give you all
an update as to my recent discovery. Has anyone ever come across this?

Subject: update on cups problem

Hello listers. I got no reply on my previous post, however I do have an
update. I am currently running Cups-1.1.20RC2 with Foomatic-rip installed
as the filter for my HP-DeskJet_400. I am also using the Hpijs driver as
recommended on Linuxprinting.org, as well as the accompanying ppd. I
reconfigured cups to use the Foomatic/Hpijs driver and it theoretically
should have worked. According to the Quickstart guide on
Linuxprinting.org, I did everything correctly. However, after doing
everything I get no output. As a result, I edited
/etc/foomatic/filter.conf, and turned debug on. This is when I got the
following out of /tmp/foomatic-rip.log: perl: warning: Setting locale
failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
        LANGUAGE = (unset),
        LC_ALL = (unset),
        LANG = "en"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

I suppose that the problem is with the Locale that Perl is using? Does
anyone know where I can find these locales so I can install them? If
anyone could give me a little more background into what that message means
that would be greatly appreciated. I must say that in all my time spent
debugging/writing new code for various purposes, I have never seen a
message quite like that one. Thanks in advance!
