>From the frontpage:

Starting from glibc 2.3.6-1, locales will no longer be included as a
pre-generated locale archive. This means that on a default glibc
installation, the only locale available is the "C" locale.
Instead of shipping a 50MB locale archive, glibc switches to locale-gen,
a script that generates locales found in /etc/locale.def.

After upgrading to glibc 2.3.6-1, users should enter wanted locales
in /etc/locale.def and run the locale-gen script afterwards.

By default /etc/locale.def is an empty file with commented
documentation. Once edited, the file won't get touched again and
locale-gen runs on every glibc upgrade, installing all the locales
specified in /etc/locale.def.
