[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1276072] Re: Language selection always falls back to English
This bug was fixed in the package lightdm - 1.9.9-0ubuntu1 --- lightdm (1.9.9-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium * New upstream release: - Handle signals being received in child processes instead of treating them like they are received in the daemon. - Set utmp ut_line to the display name (i.e. :0) to match what other programs expect (e.g. 'w'). - Fix lightdm_greeter_ensure_shared_data_dir_sync returning the wrong value. - Fix shared data tests so you can run test suite without root again. - Be extra careful not to call any non thread safe function after a fork. - Fix some small memory leaks detected by valgrind. - Fix process shutdown code to stop generating confusing warnings - Fix more double removal of source IDs. - Test improvements.

Hi, thanks for the fix. I just have a question: what do you mean by fix a 14.04 install? I do not have enough disk space to have two systems on my computer: if I want to try 14.04, I have to upgrade to it, and I am not used to do it before a few months after the announcement, nor happy to try (as they are usually a lot of remaining bugs and my computer is my working tool - I need it to work well). I could perhaps try to get a 1 GB USB key, and try it on it in persistent mode.

Yes, you've got the point: then language line is missing in /var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer. Moreover, /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log talks of a /var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log, which says that directories /usr/share/lightdm/sessions and /usr/share/lightdm/remote-sessions (this is less important, I don't want to accept remote sessions) are missing. I attach all that.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1276072] Re: Language selection always falls back to English
Now this is strange. I see in /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log the entry Greeter sets language fr_FR, and it's not followed by any error message. Still, as you say, Language is not set in /var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer. Furthermore, since Language isn't set in /var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer, accountsservice should fall back to the language in /etc/default/locale. So French (France) should be pre-selected at login. I wouldn't think that those warning messages in x-0-greeter.log are related. (I have one of those warnings myself.) OTOH I'm kind of lost. I tested with my own relatively clean Xubuntu installation (it's Xubuntu you are using, right?), and it behaves as expected in this respect. You could of course try to manually edit /var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer and add these lines: Language=fr_FR FormatsLocale=fr_FR.UTF-8 ** Package changed: language-selector (Ubuntu) = accountsservice (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: accountsservice (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to accountsservice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1276072 Title: Language selection always falls back to English Status in “accountsservice” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I upgraded two amd64 computers from 13.04 to 13.10, and discovered on both that the language is set to English (whereas I selected French language at the beginning of the upgrade).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1276072] Re: Language selection always falls back to English
What makes you think that lightdm has anything to do with it? Actually, lightdm is not involved at all when you set the language from Language Support. L-S calls accountsservice, which both saves the language as an accountsservice property and updates ~/.pam_environment. This should work the same way in Ubuntu, Xubuntu and Lubuntu. If you have studied the ~/.dmrc file, I can tell you that lightdm does not use those settings since accountsservice is installed. This bug report can be changed to whichever package is affected, so don't file a new report. But before you change that, let's try to figure out what the real problem is.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1276072] Re: Language selection always falls back to English
Well, the point is that my ~/.pam_environment is modified (even if it is write-protected, funny) when I connect through the session manager (which is lightdm), and precisely at that moment (I did monitor this on tty1), but not when I connect on console mode (on tty1, for example). And even now that I found the way to correct the language setting (by selecting it in the language selector of the session manager), I have to do it at each connection (it is set back to English) - in fact, I found that the session's type is correctly kept on both my computers, only the language is a problem. Otherwise (if it let English), the two first lines of my ~/.pam_environment are modified (to LANGUAGE=en \\ LANG=en_US.UTF-8). I add an archive with my current versions of /etc/environment and ~/.pam_environment. And, at last, even now that I corrected the language setting, I found out that some translation are missing (update manager, synaptic, Gimp, evince, emacs, calculator, ...). I think I did not have this problem when I connected before (but I may be mistaken). The language setting does not seems correct, in fact: gnome-language-selector still shows English on top, and French at the bottom (and thus grey)... I however have some (about a half) of the main menu items in French...

~/.pam_environment write protected?? That breaks everything. You should: 1. Ensure that you have read/write access to ~/.pam_environment, so the system can do its job with respect to the language settings. 2. Remove all those language/locale entries in /etc/environment - only the PATH line should be kept. Can you please do so, and let us know if that fixes it. The partial translation is probably explained by a typo in ~/.pam_environment: There is no fr-FR language code, should be fr_FR.

OK, you're right, the problems came from this typo.

It's probably the write protection that prevents the system from remembering the language.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1276072] Re: Language selection always falls back to English
Dragging some French option to the top in Language Support should be sufficient. Please make sure that it stays on top before closing Language Support. (You may need a couple of attempts.) There is normally no reason to edit ~/.pam_environment manually, and /etc/environment should not be used at all for setting language/locales. However, since you did edit ~/.pam_environment, it might explain why it doesn't work as expected. Can you please post the contents of your ~/.pam_environment file. ** Changed in: language-selector (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- 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/1276072 Title: Language selection always falls back to English Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I upgraded two amd64 computers from 13.04 to 13.10, and discovered on both that the language is set to English (whereas I selected French language at the beginning of the upgrade).
