Locale test fails

[ezzieyguywuf]

This is my system's locale:

$ locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=

From this link it seems like this is the default locale, so it should be valid. However, here is the output from trying to run the test:

Can you share information on the system you are running this on? I can only guess it is some kind of bare-bones container.

The simple solution is to just install 'en_US.UTF-8' locale before running test suite.
