locale-gen - generate localisation files from templates

Beschreibung

As compiled locales are large, only templates are distributed in the default locales package, and only the desired locales are compiled on the target system.

After selecting the locales into /etc/locale.gen (via dpkg package configuration, for example ,) locale-gen is run to compile them via localedef(1).

Syntax

locale-gen [--keep-existing]

Optionen

--keep-existing

Do not remove /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, only compiling new locales.
