Configuring locales
-------------------

Locales are a framework to switch between multiple languages and allow users to
use their language, country, characters, collation order, etc.

Please choose which locales to generate. UTF-8 locales should be chosen by
default, particularly for new installations. Other character sets may be useful
for backwards compatibility with older systems and software.

  1. All locales                      200. fr_LU ISO-8859-1
<snip>
  199. fr_FR@euro ISO-8859-15

(Enter the items you want to select, separated by spaces.)

Locales to be generated: 90 91 127


Many packages in Debian use locales to display text in the correct language for
the user. You can choose a default locale for the system from the generated
locales.

This will select the default language for the entire system. If this
system is a multi-user system where not all users are able to speak
the default language, they will experience difficulties.

  1. None  2. de_DE.UTF-8  3. de_DE.UTF-8@euro  4. en_US.UTF-8

Default locale for the system environment: 2


Generating locales (this might take a while)...
  de_DE.UTF-8... done
  de_DE.UTF-8@euro... done
  en_US.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
