Public bug reported:
I want to have a German environment, but English menus and error
messages, etc. "LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8" used to working just fine for that up until
gutsy. All of the sudden, quite many menus and error messages are in
German. Even the gdm login is already in German. I suppose this is a
bug, but it might be that I have set something wrong or ubuntu policy
changed in this aspect. In that case, please advise on how to do it
correctly.
$ set|egrep '(LC_|LANG)'
GDM_LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8
$ LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8 dpkg -i blahdeblah
dpkg: Angeforderte Operation benötigt Superuser-Rechte

>From the way I understand LC_*, these messages should be in English, not
German.
