The FAQ explains the cause:

"either
  - You have chosen a too exotic language. gettext is localized to 33 
languages. Choose a less exotic language, such as Galician or Ukrainian. Or
  - There is a problem with your environment variables. Possibly LC_ALL points 
to a locale that is not installed, or LC_MESSAGES and LC_CTYPE are 
inconsistent."

Consider also the description of locale names in
https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Setting-the-POSIX-Locale.html

On GNU systems, "UK" is not a valid locale name. If you meant Ukrainian,
use "uk_UA.UTF-8". If you meant the United Kingdom, use "en_GB.UTF-8".
