Bug#466020: gnome-terminal opens with ISO-8859-1 in UTF8 systems

[Saulo Soares de Toledo]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.18.4-1
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

I have Debian in a UTF8 system. I use Gnome and, when I open a
gnome-terminal window, the default option is always ISO-8859-1 tho my
characters.

In my language I have a lot of special characters, and is unconfortable
change this option all the time I open a terminal. The system always reset the option to
ISO-8859-1.
