There is no /etc/locale.conf but there is a man page for it. The file
itself is not shipped with systemd but its man page does:

$ dpkg -S /usr/share/man/man5/locale.conf.5.gz
systemd: /usr/share/man/man5/locale.conf.5.gz

and it states:

[...]
The /etc/locale.conf file configures system-wide locale settings. It
is read at early-boot by systemd(1).
[...]

I manually created the file according to this documentation, sorry if
i misunderstood but i never had to deal with locales, so i didn't know
which was the default debian file.
