I made no mistake, I deleted arabic from the language list AFTER switching back to german, relogin and rebooting, hoping at each step that the apps would switch back to german. Only after all that fails, I removed arabic from the list, with still no effect.
So there is definitely a bug in language-settings (and not in me) for changing some state, which then moves to .pam_environment, and is not removed their by language-settings afterwards. Practically, changing a reversible state via the GUI and changing it back does not bring back the state that was before, but another unfortune state that can only be resolved by profound analysis. And this is obviously a bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1653555 Title: Language settings stuck for KDE apps Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On my Ubuntu 16.04 system, updates as of today, after switching my system language from german to arabic and later back using the unity- control-center, KDE apps got stuck to arabic language (all GUI elements right-to-left text in arabic language). All other apps open in german language. I now completely removed arabic from the language list (unchecked the box), but KDE apps still open using arabic language.
