Check the current locales:
```bash
locale -a
```
Add the languages you want by editing `/etc/default/libc-locales`, and uncommenting your choice:
```bash
#en_DK.UTF-8 UTF-8
#en_DK ISO-8859-1
en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_GB ISO-8859-1
#en_HK.UTF-8 UTF-8
#en_HK ISO-8859-1
```
Now you can generate what you need for those languages.
However, instead of generating what you need, you're going to generate everything which needs updating:
```bash
sudo xbps-reconfigure --all --force
```
Finally, select your chosen locale by placing it in `/etc/locale.conf`.
```bash
echo "LC_ALL=en_GB.UTF-8
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_GB.UTF-8" > /etc/locale.conf
#en_DK.UTF-8 UTF-8
#en_DK ISO-8859-1
en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_GB ISO-8859-1
#en_HK.UTF-8 UTF-8
#en_HK ISO-8859-1
```
Check your new locales are available:
```bash
locale -a
```
