Locales are very much a userspace thing, the kernel doesn't care or know about<br>
it. If you're using the line-mode virtual consoles rather than Gnome terminal<br>
or xterm or other GUI terminal program, you'll need an appropriate font, but<br>
again, that's more userspace than kernel.<br>
<br>
If you read the last comment that you're pointing at in that bugzilla, it<br>
flat out tells you how to fix your issue *in userspace*.<br>
<br>
This is not a kernel problem. <br>
