I agree that the system language as set in /etc/default/locale should be
the fallback language, so I prepared two merge proposals that should fix
it. It would be great if you could fix a 14.04 install and test the
packages I uploaded to my PPA at

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
Well, I hoped it would be easier for you.. I think the changes fix it.
So then you'll find out in a couple of months if the behavior has
approved. If not, you may want to file another bug. ;)
Thanks for being persistent!

As a test, can you please create a user without forcing the uid become

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

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
Well, after a few complementary tests, I found out that this is a
lightdm bug!
In fact, on one computer (using Xubuntu), the session's options, as
session's type (Unity, Gnome, xfce, openbox, ...) and language (!), are
not kept from one session to the next, as it used to be, and need to set
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
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
~/.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
OK, you're right, the problems came from this typo. Everything is fine,
now (I did modified manually the ~/.pam_environment because the language
selection at the session opening did not correct it once - I don't know
why it works now).
I just insist on the fact that a write-protected
I confirm both points (no problem with write-protected
~/.pam_environment, still have to select French).
Is there a way to set French as the default language (that is what I
wanted when I changed the /etc/environment, but it did not work)?

It's probably the write protection that prevents the system from
remembering the language. Why on earth do you want that?
* Make it editable.
* Use Language Support to change the language somehow, and instantly change it
back.
That way accountsservice should save the language, and you don't
Sorry, but:
- write protection of ~/.pam_environment was just for testing, I made it
editable after but it did not change anything.
- the file /etc/default/locale is correct (I attach it), it does not
prevent the default language from the session manager to be English...
** Attachment added:
Did you change the language back and forth using Language Support as I
suggested?

Yes, several times, in two ways: change, log out, log in, change back, log out,
