LXC Image Ubuntu 16.10 - "tmux: need UTF-8 locale (LC_CTYPE) but have ANSI_X3.4-1968"

[naisanza]

Creating a new container with the Ubuntu 16.10 image produces this error when executing `tmux`

This is a possible regression from the Ubuntu 16.04 image, which did not have this issue

tmux: need UTF-8 locale (LC_CTYPE) but have ANSI_X3.4-1968

This can be remedied by uncommenting

# en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8

in the file /etc/locale.gen and running

locale-gen

afterwards
