Wait now... I take it that it _looks like_ Chinese is installed (in language-selector's "Language" tab), while it's actually _not_ installed as shown in LanguageSelectorLanguagesInstalled.jpg. Is that what you mean? > Notice that my preferred language = ducth (nederlands) and this > language is active, but is greyed out? So while you would have expected the black items Nederlands English at the top of the list, the only item displayed in black is English? It makes me guess that you use v. 0.52 of language-selector and that it's due to a bug that only appeared in that version. Can you please upgrade to language-selector 0.54, so we can sort out this part of the confusion? > When I start the language-selector after reboot, I get a crash (bug > 859961). Hmm.. Are you really sure it's a bug #859961 type of crash? I ask because that bug only appears in v. 0.53. > ll /usr/share/locale-langpack reveals that nor "deutsch" nor > "chinese" is installed. Right. > After regenerating the locales, both "deutsch" and "chineses" are > still in the selector That's a mystery, considering that neither Chinese nor German locales were generated according to LanguageInstaller2.jpg. Can you please let us know what the following commands outputs: locale -a cd /var/lib/locales/supported.d; cat $(ls) >>> After logging off, the preferred laguage wansn't changed.

For now I'd appreciate if you could upgrade language-selector to v. 0.54 and answer my questions above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/857326 Title: Selecting another preferred language in Lubuntu is confusing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-selector/+bug/857326/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
