The installation log

describe the problem

After fresh install using Minimal type with locale set to en_GB.UTF-8, Lazygit will throw warning

/bin/sh: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8): No such file or directory
Image

The manual workaround is to enable en_US.UTF-8 so it can be used as a fallback, as stated in the ArchWiki. And then regenerate locale using sudo locale-gen.
