Public bug reported:
The Ubuntu Installer sets the wrong language locale when some timezones
are set/automatically set for example when I set the language to English
and set the timezone to Nairobi GMT+3, the locale that is set is not an
English locale but a non-English one which is Oromo-KE instead of
English US or English UK based on keyboard layout chosen in
installation. Correction of the error after installation is possible on
gnome graphically but requires the terminal to properly correct it in
KDE and XFCE.
I request a change to the installer to solve this issue which is to
allow users to set a type of the main Language selected for example when
English is selected at the start of installation, the next step before
setting the keyboard layout should be the English type, for example,
English-UK, English-US and others so that the correct language locale is
set. An example of the change is the System76 Pop OS installation.
