system in French

[John34]

i have another problem, if someone have some ideas. I'm French and i would like to have my system in French: but here you will see the result when i write locale:

dr@gon:~$ locale
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8
LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

 

LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8 // How can i do to put it in French ? Because i have some of my files which have " accents " here some exemples: élaborer, disputé, beauté, coloré.

So in some software my files aren't scanned because these accents in files aren't known by the system, so if someone knows a command to put LC_MESSAGES in french. thank you

Edit the file /etc/default/locale .

Supposedly, you can configure this from CLI using:

sudo armbian-config

In the past I find you need to remove and reinstall to have Locale correctly set.

En espagnol, nous avons aussi des mots avec des accents: xxx, disputó, xxx, coloreó.

 

Bien à vous @John34 .

You are missing the LC_ALL= 
I've had that too with other distro's. (FriendlyElec Lubuntu)
I did this and it's fixed.

 

sudo locale-gen "fr_FR.UTF-8"
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

sudo nano /etc/environment
  add          -> LC_ALL="fr_FR.UTF-8"
