Dear list, I am fine tuning my Arch box, trying to understand and configuring step by step. I just realised I didn't take care of all the file.pacnew in /etc, and I am now taking each one. Now dealing with *locale.gen.pacnew *I am not sure to fully understand the locale set up. My box is in English, but I am living in Switzerland, write and read english and french, and uses a QWERTZU keyborad configured via keyborad layout in XFCE settings. *[gabx@magnolia etc]$ locale -a C en_US en_US.iso88591 en_US.utf8 POSIX* It seems to me some lignes about French and euro are missing. Am I right? Looking at the list etc/locale.pacnew, I was thinking adding these locales : #fr_CH.UTF-8 UTF-8 #fr_CH ISO-8859-1 #fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8 #fr_FR ISO-8859-1 #fr_FR@euro ISO-8859-15 Am I right to add all these locales? I understand I must run *$logal-gen* to add these modifications. What should I do with the locale.gen.pacnew ?? How can I update my system correctly? I see that all locales are going to */usr/share/i18n/locales*, and I guess locale.gen.pacnew will modify this list, but I have no idea how to do that. TY for help.
