== Problem description ==

After creating a VE (e.g. using centos-4-i386-default template)
running perl (any perl script), results in the warning message:

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = "en_US:en",
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "en_US"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C")

== Resolution ==

Some of templates have removed locales inside, since locales take really much space (~20Mb)
while not needed in most cases (except for the default "C" locale).

So in this example '''/usr/lib/locale/en_US/LC_TIME''' and other files are missing.

== Fix 1 ==

reinstall glibc-common package using the command:
# rpm -ihv --force glibc-common.rpm

== Fix 2 ==

Or '''disable''' overriding of LC_* variables in '''/etc/ssh/sshd_config''':

# Allow client to pass locale environment variables
AcceptEnv LANG LC_*

to

#AcceptEnv LANG LC_*

so the default LC will be used.
