Looks like the runner is using US-ASCII, probably because of LANG=C?

$ whoami
runner
$ locale
LANG=C
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"

Looks like the runner is using US-ASCII, probably because of `LANG=C`? ```shell $ whoami runner $ locale LANG=C LANGUAGE= LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 ```

Fixed by reconfiguring the runner:
