We don't document this well, but it is possible to add back in all locales.
The basic step is:
```
rm /etc/rpm/macros.image-language-conf
yum reinstall glibc-all-langpacks
```
However, that only undoes the configuration, any *existing* RPMs will still have their
locales stripped. For example, the `coreutils-common` RPM has the translations for
coreutils utilities like `touch`:
```
$ env LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 touch /foo/bar
touch: cannot touch '/foo/bar': No such file or directory
$ yum reinstall coreutils-common
$ env LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 touch /foo/bar
touch: impossible de faire un touch '/foo/bar': No such file or directory
$
```
Systemd's `localectl' is almost entirely irrelevant here - it can set the
*default* locale for login shells, but it has no idea about the RPM configuration or how
Fedora implements `glibc-all-locales` etc.
