Oh, hang on, I think I thought about this all wrong. "en_GB" *is* a correct value, but not for $LANG, but for $LANGUAGE; What you select in control-center is a language, _not_ a locale. So lightdm should not assing the "Language" accountsservice property to $LANG, which is what is causing all this trouble, and will be even more wrong for languages without a country specific dialect, i. e. all languages except English, Spanish, and Portugese.
So lightdm should either drop that set_language() call completely (I'm still convinced that this is the most correct and simplest solution), or change that to assing the "Language" property to $LANGUAGE, not $LANG. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864618 Title: UTF-8 locale no longer set To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/864618/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
