Is it possible to not update some languages in Ubuntu? I use primarily English and I do not need languages such as Arabic or Yoruba. I don't need to remove them from my computer, I just don't want to spend the time updating languages I'll never use.

Ubuntu 24.04.2

Try this:

Open a terminal

Reconfigure locales issuing the following command:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

A window will ask you to select the languages (you select with SPACE) you want to have available.

Choose only yours.

Changes may not show immediately, a reboot will be needed.

From now on, only the selected language will be updated.
