Package: gdm
Version: 2.14.5-1
Followup-For: Bug #361090

Hi all!

New fun I found out:

* Test 1
.dmrc:  only session
/e/d/locale:    [EMAIL PROTECTED]

gdm starts in German language, but starting a session cleans out the
environment (LANG empty, LC* POSIX)

* Test 2
same as above PLUS
select in gdm language menu "System Default"

same effect as above

* Test 3
.dmrc only session
/e/d/locale:    LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-15 and LANGUAGE=en_US:de_AT:it_IT
not select anything in gdm, only log in

interestingly gdm starts *again* in German, although LANG=en_US,
strange.

Logging in brings the same effect, environment cleaned.
