This is tracked as a Trello card  and I don't think it should be a part of the
rls process.

Right, it was due to bug #1662031.

~/.pam_environment should be changed when you change Language or Format
from the GUI. The fact that it looked like United Kingdom was set as
Format indicates that things were out of sync. If you for instance
change Format to something else, and then back to United Kingdom, I
think you'll notice that ~/.pam_environment is changed accordingly.

@Gunnar: Aha! The "mixed bag" locale is in there:

bombay:~$ cat .pam_environment 
LANGUAGE=en_GB
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_TIME=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_PAPER=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_NAME=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=es_ES.UTF-8
PAPERSIZE=a4

The timestamp on the file is June 8 2016, but I did not see the
behaviour I describe before 17.10. And isn't the content of
.pam_environment supposed to change to reflect the settings selected in
the GUI tools?

When I have posted this I shall edit the file and re-login, and then
post the result.

persists.

@John: What you describe is something else, and you'd better use the GUI
to fix it:

Settings -> Region & Language -> Formats

You probably want to change it to United Kingdom.

[Bug 1631750] Re: Language installation doesn't work in Ubuntu GNOME 16.10 Settings app

[John Smith]

I have what seems to be a variant of the same problem, but not fixable
with the workaround mentioned above. I upgraded a couple of days ago
from Ubuntu Gnome 17.4 to Ubuntu 17.10, and now various of my global
locale settings are incorrect in Gnome Shell 3.26. I set all the LC_*
variables to "en_GB.UTF-8" in /etc/default/locale, but the shell opens
with a lot of them changed to Spanish equivalents (I live in Spain):

bash-4.4$ locale
LANG=en_GB.utf8
LANGUAGE=en_GB:en
LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_TIME=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_PAPER=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_NAME=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=es_ES.UTF-8
LC_ALL=

Switching from gdm3 to lightdm makes no difference. Starting fvwm
instead of Gnome on xorg shows that the problem doesn't exist there, but
-- to my surprise -- it does exist if I start Gnome flashback on Compiz.
I can't try Unity, as it says my stored display settings prevent it from
opening.

This has been worked around by adding the extra buttons, so we won't get
round to fixing it this cycle.  Added to BB incoming.

Yes, but a workaround is in place: The "Manage Installed Languages"
which opens Language Support.

[Bug 1631750] Re: Language installation doesn't work in Ubuntu GNOME 16.10 Settings app

[Jeremie Tamburini]

I found the same problem with the language setup on Ubuntu 17.10.
This could be related to the new Gnome Settings (just let me know if you think 
I should open a new bug report).

I was running Ubuntu 17.10 in Italian language, previously installed
with the old Gnome Settings. I wanted to switch to English language but
I couldn't because of this bug.

Following the steps of the bug description, the only difference was the 
terminal warning: "Language it_IT not installed, trying to install it"
..which is a bit strange because the system was already set to Italian, I 
wanted to set the en_US.UTF-8.

I've noticed that while trying to change the language settings, the
strings in /etc/default/locale don't change at all.


:: WORKAROUND

1- sudo nano /etc/default/locale
2- Comment or delete the existing strings end write the following:

LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="en"

If I want to go back to the Italian setup I just need to write the
following:

LANG="it_IT.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="it:en"

3- Press [Ctrl]+O and [Enter] to save the file. Press then [Ctrl]+X to exit 
from Nano editor.
4- Log-out and log-in again or restart the system. After the log-in the system 
is asking if you would like to update the names of the folders into $HOME 
(Desktop, Music, Video, etc..).
