I tried to change xfce language recently.. i edited /etc/profile.d/i18n.sh in this way:
# Set up i18n variables
# export LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1
export LANG=it_IT.utf8
Not sure this is the right way but this way is working well, xfce is speaking italian now!
Anyway, if possible, i would like to see my terminal speak english yet (man pages, output..).
The problem is that i don't know what i have to do.. i tried to edit my .bashrc, .bash_profile or /etc/bashrc with "export LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1" but after reboot xfce speaks english again!
I suspect my runit installation is missing a file or i don't know.. any idea?
