Locale was configured in those base images.<br>
If you have account in GCE (google cloud platform) you may create VM instances from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS images and find the same difference in locale.</p>
<p>Is it inconvenient for you? What locale would be better for our clients on your opinion?</p></div>Wasa Pleshakovtag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/462413722018-10-12T07:04:17Z2018-10-12T07:04:17ZIntentional locale difference between Ubuntu and Ubuntu18 images?<div><p>Hi,</p>
<p>In all fairness, it was actually useful as a non-standard locale highlighted a bug in some string comparisons in my code.</p>
<p>Since I've now corrected that, it's not inconvenient at all. But it may trip someone else up.</p>
<p>I was simply surprised that there was a difference between the two Ubuntu images, and I couldn't find any documentation on the appveyor site to indicate that it was intentionally different.</p>
<p>If anything, I wouldn't change the locale (since it does find bugs), but I would highly recommend making it clear in documentation.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>

<p>So it is! I hadn't realised that.</p>
<p>I'll make a PR with my suggestion.</p>

In new Ubuntu images release we made same locale C.UTF-8 in both Ubuntu16 and Ubuntu18.</p></div>Wasa Pleshakovtag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/462413722018-11-16T18:48:16Z2018-11-16T18:48:16ZIntentional locale difference between Ubuntu and Ubuntu18 images?<div><p>Ah thanks, great to see consistency.</p>
