no, LANG is a superset of all LC_* variables. The format of LANG and LANGUAGE is different. LANG can only use one locale code (e.g. it_IT.utf8), while LANGUAGE provides a list of fall back codes (e.g. it_IT:it:en_GB:en) > I'm Italian and I want to have Italian numbers, dates and currency > amounts, but the interface in English. > Setting English in the language tab and Italian in the text tab does > not work for some apps (firefox, openoffice, amule) Yes, your setting is correct and you hit another bug in Firefox, which has been reported already. Firefox, oo.o and maybe some other applications unfortunately ignore the LANGUAGE variable. I hope we can get this fixed soon. -- can't change "language for menus and windows" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
