Because systemd introduced /etc/locale.conf as a configuration file for the locale I want to suggest to replace the reference to /etc/sysconfig/i18n to /etc/locale.conf in lang.*

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2011-06-13 20:08:33 UTC
NAK as posted... we need to support the old file as a fallback.

Comment 2 Jochen Schmitt 2011-06-16 17:59:13 UTC
O; from my point of view, we should have only one global configuration file. If we need the old file name as a failback solution, it should be a sym link to the primary configuration file.

Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2011-06-16 18:39:07 UTC
That only works if they're the same format.

Comment 4 Jochen Schmitt 2011-06-16 18:54:36 UTC
Both files (/etc/locale.conf and /etc/sysconfig/i18n) are simple collections of assignements of shell variables.

For /etc/locale.conf please refer man 5 locale.conf for further information.

This got done a while ago.
