Teemu, While I think you are right about the Ubuntu UIs generally don't support non-UTF-8 locales, it seems not to be because of the user_locale_utf8_fix() function in 0010-set-language.patch. user_locale_utf8_fix() does not convert UTF-8 locale names to non-UTF-8 names; it just replaces .utf8 with .UTF-8 to not reintroduce bug 666565.
Personally I think that in order to make Ubuntu support non-UTF-8 locales would need rather extensive changes in a bunch of packages. If that's what you want, discussing it on e.g. ubuntu-devel-discuss is probably a good idea. ** Changed in: accountsservice (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1033698 Title: 0010-set-language.patch forces UTF-8 into use in ~/.pam_environment To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1033698/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
