Bug description:
lightdm precise and gdm precise SRU proposals
---------------------------------------------
[Impact]
As was originally stated in the bug summary, ~/.pam_environment is not read
at login if $HOME is encrypted. The lightdm (Precise) and gdm (Precise) SRUs
fix that issue.
[Test Case]
Steps to reproduce:
* As a user with an ecryptfs protected $HOME, use language-selector to make
the user language and/or user regional formats differ from the system wide
settings (i.e. ~/.pam_environment != /etc/default/locale).
* Log out and log in again. Run the locale command from a terminal window,
and you'll find that the output is a result of /etc/default/locale, i.e.
~/.pam_environment was ignored.
[Regression Potential]
Low.
Previous description
--------------------
PAM needs to be told explicitly by respective service to parse
~/.pam_environment, since the fix of http://bugs.debian.org/611136 is about to
make it into Raring. Please see comment #29 and #30.
Otherwise the session environment will contain the system wide locale
settings, while the user's locale settings are ignored.
