---------------
lightdm (1.0.1-0ubuntu2) oneiric; urgency=low
* debian/patches/04_language_not_to_LANG.patch:
Locale names based on AccountsService's "Language" key may not
go to $LANG, as that property is a language name, not a locale.

Bug description:
As of the last oneiric upgrade I performed (I'm not certain, but I
think this was from lightdm 0.9.7-0ubuntu2 to 1.0.0-0ubuntu3), my
locale has been broken; it is now set to en_GB rather than to
en_GB.UTF-8. I've attached lightdm.log, of which the salient lines
seem to be:
[+8.46s] DEBUG: Launching process 2603: /usr/sbin/lightdm-session
'gnome-session --session=ubuntu-2d'
[+8.46s] DEBUG: pam_setcred(0x930a6c8, PAM_ESTABLISH_CRED) -> 0 (Success)
[+8.46s] DEBUG: PAM returns environment
'GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL=/tmp/keyring-JAW17p GNOME_KEYRING_PID=2592
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_GB.UTF-8:en'
[+8.46s] DEBUG: Registering session with bus path
/org/freedesktop/DisplayManager/Session0
[+8.47s] DEBUG: Using locale en_GB for language en_GB
Please fix this urgently; it's bad to have regressed to a legacy
encoding. We should be using UTF-8 for everything unless explicitly
configured otherwise, and we definitely shouldn't be ignoring explicit
configuration of UTF-8.
