Agreed that there should be an option in Ubiquity to choose your locale. I am a US citizen in Ethiopia currently, so when I install here, even though I choose "English (US)" as my keyboard, when I first login to the system, my locale is Ethiopia and the system language is Amharic! I don't read Fidel well, so can barely get around to change to English!
Whenever a person is in a location that is not their home (an "expat") they will likely prefer to NOT use the local locale (except for system time!) Furthermore, even Ethiopian people often prefer English, as it is the international langauge and there is no Amharic Microsoft Windows, so they are familiar with English Microsoft Windows. In summary, giving the user an easy way to set their locale (at least default system language) is essential in Ubiquity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1373663 Title: Inadequate locale settings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1373663/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
