Installing "glibc-all-langpacks" on system installed Fedora 29 Cloud Base Image for Vagrant doesn't enable all locales, only English locales. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -qa | grep glib glibc-common-2.28-26.fc29.x86_64 glibc-2.28-26.fc29.x86_64 glibc-all-langpacks-2.28-26.fc29.x86_64 glib2-2.58.1-1.fc29.x86_64 glibc-langpack-en-2.28-26.fc29.x86_64 $ locale -a C C.utf8 en_AG ... en_ZW.utf8 POSIX On "normal" Fedora installing "glibc-all-langpacks" installs all locales. I guess this is related to "_install langs" macro which is different on cloud and normal Fedora. cloud: $ rpm --eval "%{_install_langs}" C:en:en_US:en_US.UTF-8 fedora: $ rpm --eval "%{_install_langs}" all Feel free to close this bug if this is intentional behaviour, but I think "glibc-all-langpacks" should install *all* langpacks on all Fedora releases. Is there a simple way to install all locales using the cloud image (other than installing "glibc-langpack-*")?
This is a documentation/configuration problem with the cloud images. They probably still contain the locale stripping configuration that was introduced before we had the langpack RPMs. One possible place to check for the relevant configuration file is /etc/rpm/macros.language-conf. There are some private Red Hat Enterprise Linux bugs about this as well. I have to say this is really confusing. I'm trying to reassign this bug to the proper component. I've asked for guidance here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/XGE4DFRK7FXDGKJUDAGQPOIJGISLEUA6/
Fedora Cloud is handled by the Cloud SIG. https://pagure.io/cloud-sig/issues is most likely a better spot for this kind of issue. You can also join us in #fedora-cloud on Freenode too.
