Hello,
With the command "set | grep -i utf" you can see what environment variables
have a value with "utf". Those, that begin with "LC_" and the variable LANG
have to be unset (example: "unset LC_CTYPE LANG").

Because vdr requires it (see the first paragraph in the file "INSTALL"
/usr/share/doc/packages/vdr/INSTALL).

Cheers, Peter
