I'm currently seeing this issue in a docker container created from a ubuntu:16.04 image. I resolved it like this in my Dockerfile:
FROM ubuntu:16.04
ENV OS_LOCALE="en_US.UTF-8"
RUN locale-gen ${OS_LOCALE}
ENV LANG=${OS_LOCALE}
LANGUAGE=en_US:en
LC_ALL=${OS_LOCALE}
RUN apt-get update && apt-get -y install curl locales && curl https://install.meteor.com/ | sh
