Title:
  Changing language not possible

Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 system language got messed up.

  In 9.10 everybody else was using Finnish but me. I used English.

  After upgrade to 10.04, my language was changed to Finnish (didn't
  check others).

  Played a while with language settings (system -> administration -> language 
setting) and after making
  English system wide, I managed to get English as my language: great!

  At this point everybody else were switched to English as well, maybe
  because my system wide setting change.

  I was able to switch only 1 user back to Finnish again: very strange.
  Everybody else had English at the top of language selector after the change 
to Finnish and relogin.

  Checked their ~/.dmrc and those seemed to be correct.

  Then I found out that everybody else was lacking .profile file, but not the 
one for whom the language change worked.
  Copied .profile file for rest and Finnish language was changed for them.

  I wouldn't call this very user friendly method for changing language.

  And maybe you want to call this as feature request, but for me this
  was very annoying bug. :)
