/etc/locale.gen defines which locales are supported on your system. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
/etc/env.d/02locale defines which of these locale you are actually using |
| 24 |
by setting LANG and LC_* environment variables. Files in /etc/env.d/ end |
| 25 |
up in /etc/profile.env (by running the env-update command), which is |
| 26 |
evaluated from /etc/profile and as such by every shell. If you want |
| 27 |
different settings for your user, override that stuff in your |
| 28 |
~/.bash_profile. |
