We do not support that. /etc/ is the place for configuration on Linux, and if you make that immutable you basically turn off the ability to configure things at runtime. Which is totally OK to do of course, but if this is the mode you pick you shouldn't be surprised that this is what you get. > Is there a way to change the file location to a writeable location > as I can not find any current means to do such? This is not configurable, the path /etc/locale.conf is considered API. It's not a hidden backend or so, but a primary interface to this setting. Lennart -- Lennart Poettering, Berlin
