.SH NAME
.sp
cdist\-type__localedef \- Define and remove system locales
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
This cdist type allows you to define locales on the system using
\fBlocaledef\fP(1) or remove them.
On systems that don\(aqt support definition of new locales, the type will raise an
error.
.sp
\fBNB:\fP This type respects the glibc \fBlocale.alias\fP file,
i.e. it defines alias locales or deletes aliases of a locale when it is removed.
It is not possible, however, to use alias names to define locales or only remove
certain aliases of a locale.
.SH OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B state
\fBpresent\fP or \fBabsent\fP\&. Defaults to \fBpresent\fP\&.
