Thank you so much! It now works with the case-insensitive file list.
For the benefit of others who may be reading this, I will retrace the steps that I went through.
The command 'locales' showed that LANGUAGE= was unset.
Earlier I had created /etc/locales using all the parameters from the 'locales' command, and correcting the blank LANGUAGE= line. However, according to your post there should have been other parameters for each line. After creating it (probably incorrectly) I ran 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales'. No change in behaviour, even after both logging out and restarting.
Then I created the /etc/locale.conf with just one line, as suggested above.
I had earlier tried setting LANGUAGE via the command line, but it didn't seem to work. I hadn't gotten around to updating the two bash files yet. So now I updated both .bashrc and .bash.profile as suggested.
My system contains a
/etc/default/locale file, which I edited. I changed the line that read "LANGUAGE=en_us:en" to ...en_us.UTF-8.
I then logged out and back in---and it works! I suspect the problem lay in the .bashrc and .bash.profile files. Or perhaps in the /etc/default/locales file, but I wonder about that because my file was the same as yours, with the weird "...en_US:en" entry.
My advice to others is go through these steps one at a time, and log out and back in each time, then check nemo to see if the file name sorting has changed. Please let us know which tweak caused the change.
