Debian and Ubuntu server locale and encoding
I recently had “fun” supporting server installation of software that needed locale set properly.
In Debian, you can just use
dpkg-reconfigure locales
and the console GUI will pop up.
In Ubuntu server, you’ll have to make more steps:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Locale
And make full use of UTF, please: http://docs.python.org/2/library/locale.html
