OK, you're right:

$ echo $LANG
de_DE@euro

# show client_encoding ;client_encoding
-----------------UTF8
(1 row)


But then I wonder why the client encoding is set to UTF-8 ? I did not
fiddle at all with this AFAIK, and I guess psql is the one setting
this...

OTOH, I'm accessing the DB box via ssh, and my local box has:

cnagy> echo $LANG
en_US.UTF-8

So it might be some strange interaction between my local locale, the
server's locale and ssh...

BTW, I tried if the same problem happens on the server command line (via
ssh), and it does (while, for completeness, it works fine on my local
box):

postgres@dbpos5:~$ date
-sh:  date: command not found    ^ this here is the result of 'ü + backspace'

So I guess this is not postgres related, and therefore off topic for
this list...

Csaba.
