Title:
Cannot chose language with home on nfs export
Status in “accountsservice” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “accountsservice” source package in Precise:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
Accountsservice incorrectly prevents you from changing the user language if
HOME is on NFS.
[Test Case]
Can be reproduced anytime on Precise when logged in as a user whose HOME is
on NFS.
[Regression Potential]
Minimal.
[Original description]
There is no possibility to choose language in an interactive way in Ubuntu
12.04, neither with XFCE4 nor with Gnome, neither with lightdm nor with GDM3
when home dirs aren't on local drive.
Error message:
gdm-session-worker[2009]: AccountsService-WARNING: SetLanguage call failed:
not access to HOME yet so language not saved
That's a bummer, I have users from all over the world, they need to be
able to choose their own language.
