Public bug reported:
Image: Desktop amd64 final Yakkety release candidate
Mode: OEM, selected "German" in gfxboot, no network
The install (in German) went fine, and oem-setup started in German. I
selected French as my user's language, but this ends up in a weird
locale mix. Right after oem-setup, the desktop appears in German (sorry,
I don't have "locale" output any more), and after a reboot it appears in
English.
$ locale
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=fr_FR
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_NAME=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=de_DE.UTF-8

$ cat /etc/default/locale

LC_NAME="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE.UTF-8"
/var/lib/AccountsService/users/martin has nothing language related, and
I don't have a ~/.pam_environment, so I don't actually know where the
LANGUAGE=fr_FR comes from. There are no grep results in $HOME, /etc/, or
/var except for the oem-config.log.
"locale -a" actually shows that all German, French, and English locales
are available. I'm not entirely sure why the desktop is English in that
case (I had expected LC_MESSAGES, i. e. the LANG
