True. The first step to fully resolve this is simple: # echo exec su - -c adbd > /etc/init/android-tools-adbd.override Which was proposed back in january in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/android-tools/+bug/1267117 I have now uploaded this into unapproved queue. This will result in: $ adb shell, to have a more full environment, including correct default locale. It's a first step towards implementing the full "--user" switch support. -- Regards, Dimitri. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
