This is the output of the command:

LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=en_US.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US.UTF-8
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
GDM_LANG=en_US
LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US
LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8
LC_NAME=en_US.UTF-8

I also tried to complike statically, but the compilation failed.

In sage live USB, the only packages to add  were guie-1.8,
guile-1.8-dev and libqt4-dev. I compiled it dynamically and distribute
it via a script while the static version can handle the keyboard. This
is an acceptable solution.

Thank you for the help.
Peace.
