I've recently had to install a new version of Autodesk's EAGLE software. I downloaded and unzipped it as I have every previous version, navigated to the install folder and ran ./eagle run as I have every time before.

This time, however, it won't run and gives the error:

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

From the limited other examples of this I suspect it's an ubuntu issue rather than an EAGLE one. However, I haven't seen any fixes. Using the LANG command to change to a UTF-8 language didn't do anything.

I had the same issue with v8.6.0 - I am running Debian 9 - The following fixed the issue for me:

echo "en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8" > sudo tee /etc/locale.gen
sudo locale-gen
./eagle run
