Public bug reported: if one is english speaker in switzerland, it can be quite hard to configure so all software displays its messages in english, and the local swiss rules for currencies, time zones, etc apply.
in effect, language, country specific settings are completely independent things, so it would be nice if it could be configured independently. for a list of language codes, see http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php. this is also the base of wikipedia, which is available in 265 languages. the effect would be: one could configure us-english, in britain. or english in italy. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- localization: set language independent from country https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332605 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
