Is it possible to run ubuntu-gcc12 with UTF8? about containers

[gaborcsardi]

OK, this is now deployed.

[gaborcsardi]

Yeah, do this:

root@994228b61ca2:~# locale-gen en_US.UTF-8
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
  en_US.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
root@994228b61ca2:~# export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
root@994228b61ca2:~# R
...
> l10n_info()
$MBCS
[1] TRUE

$`UTF-8`
[1] TRUE

$`Latin-1`
[1] FALSE

$codeset
[1] "UTF-8"

Seems like the corresponding machines are now UTF-8 on CRAN, so we should also change the defaults on this container.

Changed to C.UTF-8 here: 5c56aa2, should be live tomorrow.
