No problem, these things happen -- anyway, your timing was great as I
was just about to do something about this anyway.

Ah, good to know. I had assumed that you'd come across this by using
one of the affected translations.
Given that isn't the case, I had another look at the list of locales,
and noticed that Georgian is at least right-to-left so is a bit easier
for me to drive, so added that to my tests, and added the collection of
root's .profile as part of the post-install, with the result that we
have this example of the old code failing:
https://openqa.debian.net/tests/60893/logfile?filename=root_dot_profile.txt
Re-running the test with a gtk-mini.iso that includes the patched
localechooser gives us the result we're hoping for, which is nice:
https://openqa.debian.net/tests/60903/logfile?filename=root_dot_profile.txt
I had planned to do a bit more on the salsa scripting side of things to
streamline creating this sort of test, and then to upload a new version
of localechooser including this change, but I find myself a little
distracted by my family members contracting Covid19 over the last couple
of days. Hopefully I'll have chance to finish things off shortly.
Cheers, Phil.
