Title:
Need to set $LANG from .dmrc for backwards compatibility
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “lightdm” source package in Oneiric:
Fix Released
Bug description:
This is fallout from bug 864618: In that bug we disabled the
set_language() call as it invalidly sets $LANG to the "Language"
property of accountsservice, which cannot work because $LANG is a
locale and "Language" is only a language name.
However, set_language() also sets the $LANG variable from ~/.dmrc,
which we need for backwards compatibility and derivatives.
So what should happen is that all the code which does the `locale -a`
guesswork needs to be dropped, and only these parts remain which
evaluate ~/.dmrc.
Please see http://pad.ubuntu.com/locale-handling for details.
