Package control not working in Sublime Text build 4126

#1

Case (1) On Fedora 29 with Sublime Text build 4126 I have Package control installed in ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Installed Packages/Package Control.sublime-package, but in Command Palette I don’t have any Package control options

Case (2) On RHEL 8 with Sublime Text build 4126 I have Package control installed in ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Installed Packages/Package Control.sublime-package, I have the “Package Control: Install Package” option in Command Palette but when I chose this option nothing happens.

Check your ignored_packages setting, maybe it ended up in there

Check the ST console for errors (View menu -> Show Console)

Thanks @kingkeith

Case 1) It works today. I have not changed anything meanwhile. :roll_eyes:

Case 2) There is a file missing:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '~/.cache/sublime-text-3/Cache/Package Control/http_cache'

I fixed this by doing

cd ~/.cache/sublime-text-3/Cache
mkdir -p 'Package Control/http_cache'

but now I have this error

Ok. I checked /etc/locale.conf and I have the following configuration

LANG=en_US.UTF-8

When I start Sublime Text I see the following error message:
“Your sistem’s locale is set to a value that can not handle non-ASCII characters.”

I used

LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text

to start Sublime Text 4 but I have the same problem.

I also have in my .bashrc

export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 
export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8

Is there anything else I can check on my system in order to debug this? For some reason sublime is trying to use iso8859_15

Ok, I managed to fix this.

I had to add LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" in /etc/locale.conf and export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 in ~/.bashrc
