unable to run on centos 7 VM
Metadata
Current evaluation
Untriaged CentOS 7 locale failure prevents Snapcraft 4.6 from starting; no maintainer response or resolution is recorded.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The report gives a concrete Snapcraft 4.6 traceback: locale(1) cannot find the default locale, and Click aborts because the exported C.UTF-8 locale is unsupported on CentOS 7 while listing other UTF-8 locales. With no labels, maintainer comment, or explicit support expectation, a maintainer must determine whether this is a host configuration limitation or a Snapcraft startup defect.

Click discovered that you exported a UTF-8 locale but the locale system could not pick up from it because it does not exist. The exported locale is 'C.UTF-8' but it is not supported
