For the localization packages to work correctly, the system has to support the corresponding languages.

For example, if you need to install the Russian localization package klms-l10n-ru_<version_number>_i386.deb on Debian GNU/Linux 6.0, make sure that the system supports the Russian language before installing the package.

To view the list of supported languages, run the following command:

# locale -a

If the Russian language is not on this list, you have to install it.

To install the Russian language, run the following command:

# dpkg-reconfigure locales

You can now proceed to installing the klms-l10n-ru_<version_number>_i386.deb package.

Follow the same steps for any localization.
