How to install other region?

Question

I have only United States for my Region and Formats probably because I have a custom installed Ubuntu!

How do you install another one?

update

This is why it doesn't work...how to fix this error?

Answer 1

First reinstall locale package:

sudo apt --reinstall install locales

Open this file:

sudo nano /etc/locale.gen

Find this line: # de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8, uncomment it so it's now: de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8. Save the file and run:

sudo locale-gen

see if you have German now.

Answer 2

If you want German region formats, I think this is a way:

1. Switch to German language, which will generate a few German locales.
2. Switch back to English language.
3. Now you should find some German region options.
