Well, I hoped it would be easier for you.. I think the changes fix it.
So then you'll find out in a couple of months if the behavior has
approved. If not, you may want to file another bug. ;)
Thanks for being persistent!

Hi, thanks for the fix.
I just have a question: what do you mean by "fix a 14.04 install"? I do
not have enough disk space to have two systems on my computer: if I want
to try 14.04, I have to upgrade to it, and I am not used to do it before
a few months after the announcement, nor happy to try (

selecting Other makes it happen.

Worse and worse!
Of course, the user list helps because the user selected automatically
is the only non system user, for which language setting is OK (explain
me why) even though it is not written in its file in
/var/lib/AccountsService/users/.
But two new bugs appear:

Whatsoever, it does not change a lot: before entering login (or

(it should be the system one, i.e. French, don't you think?).

It falls back to the system language for me. Given a user with a

mount procedures make mappings, I will change my uid).

As a test, can you please create a user without forcing the uid become <

this may be it.

Sniff! Sorry to tell you that: it does not work!
The point is that the file /var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer is
rewritten (without the language settings) at each connection. Too bad!
And I don't understand either why the language setting does not fall

Now this is strange. I see in /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log the entry
"Greeter sets language fr_FR", and it's not followed by any error

Sorry, but:
- write protection of ~/.pam_environment was just for testing, I made it

It's probably the write protection that prevents the system from
remembering the language. Why on earth do you want that?

* Use Language Support to change the language somehow, and instantly change it

That way accountsservice should save the language, and you don't need
I confirm both points (no problem with write-protected

Is there a way to set French as the default language (that is what I

OK, you're right, the problems came from this typo. Everything is fine,
now (I did modified manually the ~/.pam_environment because the language
selection at the session opening did not correct it once - I don't know
why it works now).
I just insist on the fact that a write-protected ~/.pam_enviro
~/.pam_environment write protected?? That breaks everything. You should:
1. Ensure that you have read/write access to ~/.pam_environment, so the system
can do its job with respect to the language settings.
2. Remove all those language/locale entries in /etc/environment - only the PATH
line shoul
Well, the point is that my ~/.pam_environment is modified (even if it is
write-protected, funny) when I connect through the session manager (which is
lightdm), and precisely at that moment (I did monitor this on tty1), but not
when I connect on console mode (on tty1, for example).
And even now
What makes you think that lightdm has anything to do with it? Actually,
lightdm is not involved at all when you set the language from Language
Support. L-S calls accountsservice, which both saves the language as an
accountsservice property and updates ~/.pam_environment. This should
work the same w
Well, after a few complementary tests, I found out that this is a

Dragging some French option to the top in Language Support should be
sufficient. Please make sure that it stays on top before closing
