NAME

6       cdist-type__localedef - Define and remove system locales
7

DESCRIPTION

9       This  cdist  type  allows you to define locales on the system using lo‐
10       caledef(1) or remove them.  On systems that don't support definition of
11       new locales, the type will raise an error.
12
13       NB:  This  type  respects  the glibc locale.alias file, i.e. it defines
14       alias locales or deletes aliases of a locale when it is removed.  It is
15       not possible, however, to use alias names to define locales or only re‐
16       move certain aliases of a locale.
17

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS

19       state  present or absent. Defaults to present.

EXAMPLES

22          # Add locale de_CH.UTF-8
23          __localedef de_CH.UTF-8
24
25          # Same as above, but more explicit
26          __localedef de_CH.UTF-8 --state present
27
28          # Remove colourful British English
29          __localedef en_GB.UTF-8 --state absent
