I need to change my locale from LANG=C to LANG=en_US on debian-390 (woody-3.0r1), running under hercules 390 emulator. Just changing the value of LANG does not seem to do what I expect. In fact, it doesn't seem to do much of anything.
Could someone please point me to a faq or HOWTO that tells what packages need to be installed and a step-by-step procedure for changing locale?
TIA for any info and RTFM's you can provide.
I don't have any FAQ pointers, but have you tried setting LC_ALL=en_US ? I apologise for stating the obvious, but you also have to export the variables once you set them.
In many cases you need to compile the locale files first with locale-gen (8).
running
dpkg-reconfigure locales
will provide a comfortable interface for this
