The LANG environment variable must have a valid locale name, or else
many i18n things are screwed up.
To users, who have chosen to receive backports updates, a surprising
security update resulted effectively in a (temporary) downgrade with
respect to the language related stuff in the backports
A security update should never break the system.
Actual GDM doesn't allow choose a language nor change the theme, so why change
the system language?
The security update is a faulty update.

I think you should read up on backports in general.

Title:
GDM_LANG
I have read and... You're saying that the correct version of GDM is not
in the backports?
I repeat the question: Actual GDM (at least on Lucid) doesn't allow
choose a language nor change the theme, so why change the system
language?

The difference between backports gdm and the other gdm branches is
basically code that I wrote, so I hope it's not less correct. ;-)
To be honest, I don't quite understand the question. By actual GDM, do
you refer to backports or something else? And doesn't allow you to
choose a language...
GDM in Lucid has a theme and it doesn't allow to change the theme.
That theme it only allows:
1) Change of user.
2) Activate the accessibility options.
3) Reboot/Shutdown.
It doesn't permit change the type of gnome session, the language,...
I refer to the GDM actual: backport or security is
Writing this in my just updated Lucid installation.
As regards theme, I have never changed it. When on the login screen,
after having clicked my name, the bottom pane shows three widgets:
Language, Keyboard layout and Session. If you don't see those, maybe the
theme you are using is broken?
And
It just struck me... When you say theme, could you possibly mean that
you are using the Netbook desktop instead of GNOME? I did that a couple
of months, but I don't remember which controls that were available. Now
that options is not there any longer.

I have activated login without password entry.
When I click in my name, gdm enter in my gnome session, without it allows me to
change anything.

I have only one gdm* package installed: the gdm itself. No additional gdm theme.
My theme is default Ubuntu theme. It looks like this: http://goo.gl/wbFsp but
with this background/colors: http://goo.gl/s1KG5

Csipak Attila is right. I have prepared new gdm branches for lucid-
backports and maverick-backports, and linked them to this bug report.

Additional info: The branches were uploaded to my ppa, where they built
fine. I have successfully installed and run the resulting binaries in
both Lucid and Maverick.

This is just merging the recent security update, so this looks fine for
backports. Will upload, thanks!

Thanks for the confirmation, Eimann!
To all:
What you need to do if you were hit by the issue in this bug is to update the
package information in Synaptic or Update Manager or via sudo apt-get update
in a terminal window. Then, if you upgrade again, the issue should be resolved.
