I discovered that if you put the whole string of "unset" commands in the
.bashrc you partially break "man" with it complaining about POSIX something.

You can eradicate the scourge of UTF-8 by sticking this in
your .bashrc (assuming you use bash):
# Redhat is fooling themselves if they think UTF8 actually functions
# well all the time (or even any of the time)...
#
unset LANG
unset LC_ADDRESS
unset LC_CTYPE
unset LC_COLLATE
unset LC_IDENTIFICATION
unset LC_MEASUREMENT
unset LC_MESSAGES
unset LC_MONETARY
unset LC_NAME
unset LC_NUMERIC
unset LC_PAPER
unset LC_TELEPHONE
unset LC_TIME
unset LC_ALL
LC_ALL='POSIX'
export LC_ALL
Its in my .bashrc and things work ever so much better without
UTF-8 :-).
I'm not a big fan of UTF-8 either =) In my case, I simply created a
~/.i18n file with this:
SUPPORTED="en_US.iso88591"
(or whatever charset you use)
Fedora will use this instead of system default (/etc/sysconfig/i18n) if
it exists.
HTH,
