    Invalid byte sequence sounds like a locale issue (see this blog post).

    The real fix will happen when Data.Text moves from UTF-16 to UTF-8:

    https://discourse.haskell.org/t/hf-tech-proposal-1-utf-8-enc...

    Fortunately this proposal has been accepted, but I don't know the timeline for its implementation in GHC.

    Until then, working with UTF-8 is kind of convoluted

    Also: libraries need to be fixed to accept Data.Text instead of String. IsString helps (it's a typeclass that contains all string types) but only if APIs take it instead of defaulting to String. Adding random string conversions to cope with legacy APIs is very annoying.

    Agda is written in Haskell, and the quoted error message is a common problem with applications written in Haskell. You probably have an environment variable like LC_CTYPE or LC_ALL which is set to an unusual value. I'd try setting LANG, LC_CTYPE and LC_ALL to en_US.utf8.
