Public bug reported:
Impish Indri daily
Steps to reproduce:
1) Choose any language with a character set outside of ISO 8859-1. In my case,
Russian
2) Proceed with installation. Arrive at "Who are you?" screen
3) Type in your name in Russian layout
- The "Your username" field is not filled automatically
5) Try typing a username you wish to use
- It cannot recognize the characters and won't let you continue.
- It will thus complain that usernames should begin with lowercase letters
No matter if the letters are lower or upper case, it simply cannot
recognize them.
User is forced to manually add English or a similar layout that has
Latin characters.
