[CentOS] LC_COLLATE variable?
Hi, I'm running my CentOS 7 desktop in french. LANG is set to fr_FR.UTF-8. In GNOME 3, the menu entries are listed in alphabetical order. Unfortunately, entries beginning with an accented character (like "Éditeur de texte") appear at the bottom of the list. I know that in order to correct this, I have to set the LC_COLLATE variable to fr_FR.UTF-8. What would be a sensible place to do this system-wide under CentOS 7?

Hi, to my knowledge echo "LC_COLLATE=fr_FR.UTF-8" >> /etc/locale.conf is the right way to do that.

If I remember correctly, CentOS 5.x and 6.x had an /etc/sysconfig/i18n file for that.

Putting LC_COLLATE in /etc/locale.conf does nothing.

Hi together, Centos 7 uses localectl to manage the locales. But they are stored in /etc/locale.conf. You can either set them manually in that file or use localectl set-locale LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=fr_FR to do that. Using localectl immediatly applies the change without the need to restart the system. It seems that fr_FR.UTF-8 is not a valid locale for LC_COLLATE, as indeed it is not accepted by localectl, fr_FR is however.
