- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para>The <filename>/etc/locale.conf</filename> file configures
- system-wide locale settings. It is read at early boot by
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
-
- <para>The basic file format of <filename>locale.conf</filename> is
- a newline-separated list of environment-like shell-compatible
- variable assignments. It is possible to source the configuration
- from shell scripts, however, beyond mere variable assignments, no
- shell features are supported, allowing applications to read the
- file without implementing a shell compatible execution
- engine.</para>
-
- <para>Note that the kernel command line options
- <varname>locale.LANG=</varname>,
- <varname>locale.LANGUAGE=</varname>,
- <varname>locale.LC_CTYPE=</varname>,

- <varname>locale.LC_TELEPHONE=</varname>,
- <varname>locale.LC_MEASUREMENT=</varname>,
- <varname>locale.LC_IDENTIFICATION=</varname> may be
- used to override the locale settings at boot.</para>
-
- <para>The locale settings configured in
- <filename>/etc/locale.conf</filename> are system-wide and are
- inherited by every service or user, unless overridden or unset by
- individual programs or individual users.</para>
-
- <para>Depending on the operating system, other configuration files
- might be checked for locale configuration as well, however only as
- fallback.</para>
-
- <para><citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>localectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- may be used to alter the settings in this file during runtime from
- the command line. Use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- to initialize them on mounted (but not booted) system
- images.</para>
