Test case added. ** Description changed:
lightdm precise and gdm precise SRU proposals --------------------------------------------- [Impact] As was originally stated in the bug summary, ~/.pam_environment is not read at login if $HOME is encrypted. The lightdm (Precise) and gdm (Precise) SRUs fix that issue. + + [Test Case] + Steps to reproduce: + * As a user with an ecryptfs protected $HOME, use language-selector to make the user language and/or user regional formats differ from the system wide settings (i.e. ~/.pam_environment != /etc/default/locale). + * Log out and log in again. Run the locale command from a terminal window, and you'll find that the output is a result of /etc/default/locale, i.e. ~/.pam_environment was ignored. [Regression Potential] Low. Previous description -------------------- PAM needs to be told explicitly by respective service to parse ~/.pam_environment, since the fix of http://bugs.debian.org/611136 is about to make it into Raring. Please see comment #29 and #30. Otherwise the session environment will contain the system wide locale settings, while the user's locale settings are ignored. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952185 Title: ~/.pam_environment not parsed by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/952185/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
