原文地址：http://people.debian.org/~schultmc/locales.html

The Easy Way

1. Install debconf (i.e. runapt-get updatethenapt-get install debconf, as root)
2. Rundpkg-reconfigure localesas root

The Hard Way

1. Edit/etc/locale.genas root. If/etc/locale.gendoes not exist, create it. An example/etc/locale.genis below.
2. Run/usr/sbin/locale-genas root

A sample/etc/locale.gen

# This file lists locales that you wish to have built. You can find a list
# of valid supported locales at /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED. Other
# combinations are possible, but may not be well tested. If you change
# this file, you need to rerun locale-gen.
#
# XXX GENERATED XXX
#
# NOTE!!! If you change this file by hand, and want to continue
# maintaining manually, remove the above line. Otherwise, use the command
# "dpkg-reconfigure locales" to manipulate this file. You can manually
# change this file without affecting the use of debconf, however, since it
# does read in your changes.
