Right, understood. The installer tried to set reasonable locales based on the selections you made. > It sounds like something isn't working properly during the install. It works as expected. But there is an inconsistency under the hood: While the UIs you encounter after the installation only show language options which represent translations, the installer does not care about that. So in your case the installer set en_NZ.UTF-8 everywhere. But since there are no en_NZ translations, that locale is ignored with respect to the display language. In case of Xubuntu, with lightdm-gtk-greeter, you instantly are enforced to select one of the available translations, and the locale is altered accordingly. So please focus on the actual behavior of your desktop. Are you encountering a real problem? I don't think you are. What I think you should do is asking yourself which of the available translations are closest to the English you speak in NZ, and select that language. Based on your geographical location I would suspect it's en_AU, but really don't know. > Do I need to report a new bug? No need to. If you can convince me that there is a problem which needs to be fixed, I'll be happy to open this bug report again. But I don't think you can. ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1562279 Title: Can't set en_NZ locale To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-en-base/+bug/1562279/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
