There is a relatively easy way to change the locales from the
commandline as shown in http://blog.andrewbeacock.com/2007/01/how-to-
change-your-default-locale-on.html
Basically it only needs the following commands:
Add the locale to the list of 'supported locales'
Edit /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local and add the following line:
en_GB ISO-8859-1
Regenerate the supported locales
Run sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
Change the default locale
Edit /etc/environment and ensure the LANG and LANGUAGE lines read as follows:
LANG="en_GB"
LANGUAGE="en_GB:en"
Reboot!
Is that helpful and can this bug/wish be closed?
