Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu, use English as default language but manually set the 
timezone to Taipei
2. Boot to desktop, run command `locale`

Expected Result:
* You should only see "en_US.UTF-8" and "zh_TW" in the output

Actual Result:
* You will see "lzh_TW" instead.

Impact:
This will cause error when running commands like apport, which will call the 
locale.py in Python

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk", line 598, in <module>
    app.run_argv()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 694, in run_argv

    raise ValueError('unknown locale: %s' % localename)
ValueError: unknown locale: lzh_TW
