That doesn't work on my computer!

/usr/share/i18n # grep fr_FR SUPPORTED 
fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8
fr_FR ISO-8859-1
fr_FR at euro ISO-8859-15

/usr/share/i18n # locale-gen fr_FR.ISO-8859-1
Error: 'fr_FR.ISO-8859-1' is not a supported language or locale

/usr/share/i18n # locale-gen fr_FR.ISO-8859-15
Error: 'fr_FR.ISO-8859-15' is not a supported language or locale

/usr/share/i18n # locale-gen fr_FR at euro.ISO-8859-15
Error: 'fr_FR at euro.ISO-8859-15' is not a supported language or locale
