Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 3a54a15760 man: use same header for all files
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.

$ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n  "http^gms' man/*.xml

<title>Description</title>
<para><command>localectl</command> may be used to query and change
the system locale and keyboard layout settings. It communicates with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-localed</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
to modify files such as <filename>/etc/locale.conf</filename> and
<filename>/etc/vconsole.conf</filename>.</para>
<para>The system locale controls the language settings of system
services and of the UI before the user logs in, such as the
display manager, as well as the default for users after
login.</para>
<para>The keyboard settings control the keyboard layout used on
the text console and of the graphical UI before the user logs in,
such as the display manager, as well as the default for users
after login.</para>
<para>Note that the changes performed using this tool might require
the initramfs to be rebuilt to take effect during early system boot.
The initramfs is not rebuilt automatically by <filename>localectl</filename>.
</para>
<para>Note that
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
may be used to initialize the system locale for mounted (but not booted)
system images.</para>
