Those who use Debian also have to install locales
package.
RUN apt-get update && DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y locales
RUN sed -i -e 's/# en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8/' /etc/locale.gen && \
dpkg-reconfigure --frontend=noninteractive locales && \
update-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8
ENV LANG en_US.UTF-8
This answer helped me a lot.
