Bug#656745: gnome-control-center: Region panel breaks LANG, breaks terminal charset, shows wrong languages

Regardless, the above code itself would need to be fixed, because it auto-adds specific languages without making it possible to remove them from the list using the Minus button, which is what would be the expected behavior. Also, rather than attempt to auto-add a multitude of languages to the Region tab, the language selector pull-down list should be restored in GDM; whoever recently removed it from there really needs to get their brain checked.

Bug#656745: gnome-control-center: Region panel breaks LANG, breaks terminal charset, shows wrong languages
Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:3.2.2-2 Followup-For: Bug #656745 Hi, I can confirm the incorrect behavior of the Region panel. For me, it will always list: British English Chinese (simplified) English Spanish Also, while adding a new language from the installed locales by clicking the plus sign works, the newly added language vanishes when closing the regional panel (by clicking "All Settings" for example) and then, re-opening it. However, when I set the newly added language as default, then log out and log in again, it will remain in the list. Until I set a new default language. Furthermore, it is not possible to remove any languages or formats by clicking the minus sign. As for the broken encoding in gnome-terminal: This actually originates from GDM_LANG not being set. I have observed this on some Wheezy machines at work while my home machines do not have this particular problem. You can "hotfix" the problem by manually setting your language in /var/lib/AccountsServices/users/$user, however this should be fixed in GNOME itself. See this somewhat related bug report [1].

Bug#656745: gnome-control-center: Region panel breaks LANG, breaks terminal charset, shows wrong languages
Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:3.2.2-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I was playing around with the new Region panel in gnome-control-center and it broke my language settings and the character encoding for gnome-terminal. Firstly, the panel shows the wrong options for language: British English Chinese (simplified) English Spanish Unspecified [ANSI_X3.4-1968] English This is the output of locale -a: --- C C.UTF-8 POSIX en_AU.utf8 fr_BE.utf8 nl_BE.utf8 --- So clearly Chinese, British English, or Spanish shouldn't be in the list. After setting English in the region panel, logging out, then logging in, I have the following output from locale: --- locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory LANG=en_US.utf8 LANGUAGE= LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8" LC_NUMERIC=en_AU LC_TIME=en_AU LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8" LC_MONETARY=en_AU LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8" LC_PAPER="en_US.utf8" LC_NAME="en_US.utf8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8" LC_MEASUREMENT=en_AU LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8" LC_ALL= --- I don't have the en_US.utf8 locale installed, so I'm not sure where it's getting this setting from. Also the gnome-terminal character encoding is being set to "Current Locale (ANSI_X3.4-1968)" but actually I would prefer UTF-8. What I would like is for the Region panel to allow me to select from the available locales (i.e. C, en_AU.utf8, nl_BE.utf8, fr_BE.utf8), not show Chinese as an option, and correctly set the locale environment variables and terminal character encoding.

Bug#656745: gnome-control-center: Region panel breaks LANG, breaks terminal charset, shows wrong languages
fixed -1 1:3.8.3-3 thanks Hi Rodney, hi Martin-Eric! Have you had a look at the new "Region & Language" control panel in GNOME 3.8.4 which is available in unstable now. The GNOME developers have completely overhauled the panel and looks much cleaner now and actually works as expected. GNOME upstream has also marked the bug that I linked as resolved [1], so it's therefore safe to say the issue can be closed here as well.

Bug#656745: gnome-control-center: Region panel breaks LANG, breaks terminal charset, shows wrong languages
I wouldn't consider this issue as fixed. GNOME still shoves default languages onto the end-users, instead of only showing languages for which libc locales were generated, or whichever language was selected by the user via GDM upon logon. 2013/10/28 John Paul Adrian Glaubitz : > fixed -1 1:3.8.3-3 > thanks > > Hi Rodney, hi Martin-Eric! > > Have you had a look at the new "Region & Language" control panel > in GNOME 3.8.4 which is available in unstable now.

I'm sorry, but obviously you did not try the version of gnome-control-center which I mentioned which does exactly that. I just verified it again, by adding an additional locale with dpkg-reconfigure locales. This additional locale was immediately visible in the gnome-control-center, without even having to log off and on again. Just try it yourself. Adrian -- .''`.

Actually, that version cannot be tested as-is, because too many of the dependencies are not yet available in Testing and too many of the newer packages that satisfy those dependencies Breaks older versions. 2013/10/29 John Paul Adrian Glaubitz : > On 10/28/2013 11:06 PM, Martin-Éric Racine wrote: >> I wouldn't consider this issue as fixed. >> >> GNOME still shoves default languages onto the end-users, instead of >> only showing languages for which libc locales were generated, or >> whichever language was selected by the user via GDM upon logon. > > I'm sorry, but obviously you did not try the version of > gnome-control-center which I mentioned which does exactly that. > > I just verified it again, by adding an additional locale with > dpkg-reconfigure locales.

That's completely irrelevant here since I tagged the version it has been fixed in which is the version in unstable. The key information for anyone looking into this bug is that it has been remedied with the version of gnome-control-center in unstable which will eventually propagate into testing and be released as Jessie.
