Hi Walter, and thanks for your help to make Ubuntu better by reporting
this issue. (I don't think it has anything to do with langpack-locales,
though.)
Anyway, I'm deeply involved in this problem area, and have some
questions.
First, to better understand the problem, I'm interested in the contents
of two files. Can you please let us know the output from these commands:
cat /etc/default/locale
cat ~/.pam_environment

Were the programs you mention displayed in Catalan before the update?
Exacly what did you do when updating? Are you referring to the
distupgrade 24 days ago?

It's not "wrong" per se. LC_ALL is not supposed to be set.

That's the same as just saying LANGUAGE=ca_ES
If ca_ES works but not ca for some programs, I suppose that you have a
/usr/share/locale/ca_ES folder on your system with translations for
those programs. And if so, setting the language to your liking using
Language Support should populate LANGUAGE in a way that works; e.g. like
LANGUAGE="ca_ES:en"

Title:
Locales does not set language fully
Status in “langpack-locales” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have updated my system and chose "Catalan" language as my locale
everywhere. If I enter "locale" at a command line, I get the
following:
LANG=ca_ES.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=ca:en_US:en
LC_CTYPE="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_TIME=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_NAME=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_ALL=
Notice the wrong string in language and and the empty string in
LC_ALL. Some programs which are localized in Catalan don't start in
Catalan, unless I redefine the variable LANGUAGE to:
LANGUAGE= ca:ca_ES:ca
