[Bug 828412] Re: installer does not allow the right country/language combination
This problem does not affect the graphical installer, so it's brilliantly solved it by removing the text installer ;-) Not everyone finds sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata and tzselect trivial. sample ;-) : http://askubuntu.com/questions/33025/locale-settings-are-not-right-how-can-i-reset-them I'm even getting scolded by certain persons for suggesting commands. BTW, it's a pity that the whole of a language must be installed (except Chinese?) just for using its locale. As well as for spell-checking it, for those who don't know how to install just the dictionary and select it. For example askubuntu. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1624581 Windows can use any locale and spelling despite remaining monolingual ;-) It can even change details of a locale piece by piece. I found no status indicating that the problem disappeared because the component disappeared :-) Thank you. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/828412 Title: installer does not allow the right country/language combination To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/localechooser/+bug/828412/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 828412] Re: installer does not allow the right country/language combination
As a workaround, it is trivial to change time-zone locale post- install. So install defaulting to English (US) (or any other English locales of your choice), and then change the necessary time-zone after the installation. ** Changed in: localechooser (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed ** Changed in: localechooser (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/828412 Title: installer does not allow the right country/language combination To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/localechooser/+bug/828412/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
