[opensuse] 11.2 shell error: /usr/bin/manpath: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct??

Listmates,

On my laptop, when I use ssh to connect to other boxes, I receive the
following error:

/usr/bin/manpath: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct

I don't know, but it probably explains the screwed up text encoding I see in
konsole where instead of having the normal line drawing characters in mc, I
get weird A's or a's. See:

Thankfully, I haven't run into this problem before 11.2, but unthankfully
that means I'm kind of searching for where to start looking to fix the
problem. Anybody have an idea of what to check?

This doesn't just effect kde4, this effects all desktops (e16, flux, openbox,
etc...)
