Your locale tells the computer your location, preferred time-and-date format, standard language, papersize, et c.
|
||||
A list of supported locales is available at /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED
|
||||
|
||||
See a full list with:
|
||||
|
||||
> cat /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cat /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Take the first portion to generate full locale information for a region:
|
||||
|
||||
> locale-gen ru_RU.UTF-8
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
locale-gen ru_RU.UTF-8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then use this for the current shell session with
|
||||
|
||||
> LANG=ru_RU.utf8
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
LANG=ru_RU.utf8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expand this to the entire system with:
|
||||
|
||||
> export LANG=ru_RU.utf8
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
export LANG=ru_RU.utf8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can make this permanent for one user by adding this line to the ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc.
|
||||
|
||||
Make it permanent for the entire system by editing:
|
||||
|
||||
> sudo vim /etc/defaults/locale
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo vim /etc/defaults/locale
|
||||
```
