Right. And I think you were close to the truth when you said in a comment on the Ask Ubuntu page that gnome-control-center seems to get its list from /usr/share/locale-langpack. That's approximately what happens, and it's fine when it comes to selecting display languages, but it's not correct for selecting regional formats. In other words there should be two separate lists, but currently gnome-control-center uses the list intended for display languages for both purposes. My somewhat technical comment was intended for Tim who is an Ubuntu GNOME developer. I might propose a fix later on, but I'd like Tim's view on which route to take first. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-desktop3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1440275 Title: Ubuntu GNOME only allows regional format setting for US, UK, Canada, Australia, and NZ Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-desktop3 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I installed Ubuntu GNOME 15.04 Beta 2. I set the system locale to Korean language, which worked okay. When I tried to set regional format (date, time, currency, number, metric, etc.), however, the options are only limited to 5 regions: US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand. I do live in the US, but I want to set the regional format in Korean because that goes with the system language. I currently set the regional format to that of Canada because I am not familiar with US system of yards, feet and pounds. As you can see in the attached screenshot, the date format shown on the middle of the task bar is a mixture of English and Korean (Frankenstein-ish). As I browsed through the bug report launchpad site, I found this bug has a long history which dates back to Ubuntu version 9.04. I have installed Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 LTS on my other computer and it does not have the same bug. I guess it has something to do with the newly introduced "systemd"? I would very much like to see this bug is fixed ASAP (at least before the release of 15.04 proper version). I love GNOME interface, but this bug annoys me. Regards.
