I'm not sure what's the localization XML you're talking about -- we
don't have any such thing in Postgres. We do have localization in
Postgres, but it's used for error messages, the output of --help of
various programs, and so on. The way to start there is to see
https://babel.postgresql.org about getting your language added; there
are other important links in that page also.

If that's not what you meant, I think you'll have to explain more.
