locale runtime error when using ogre3d package

[osrf-migration]

Original report (archived issue) by Jose Luis Rivero (Bitbucket: Jose Luis Rivero, GitHub: j-rivero).

While I was using docker to test the handsim package I found that every gazebo command I launch ends up with:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid

The gdb trace points to Ogre

My hypothesis is that we should be under the effects of this problem. Official issue.

Side note, the libogre3d-1.9 deb is kind of a mess right now. For example, we are not able to enable shadows even when stereo is off.
