* debian/patches/ubuntu_dont_set_language_env.patch:
- Don't run the set_up_session_language() function, since it
overrides variable values set by ~/.pam_environment
See conversation on the upstream bug report. It turns out calling
set_up_session_language() earlier (e.g. in on_setup_complete_cb) doesn't
fix the problem: gdm_session_start_session() calls send_environment(),
which overrides the environment set up by pam with the values from

I added a FOOBAR variable to both ~/.pam_environment and

In /etc/pam.d/gdm-launch-environment:

In pam_env.c (handle_env function), the env should be set from

The /etc/default/locale file was not altered when I just tested on an

To clarify: I used the g-c-c interface to switch language. If I had

clicked "Apply System-Wide", /etc/default/locale would have been updated
too. But that 'does not count'. Language Support is available to work

Sebastien and I observed. I'll go to a (relatively) fresh artful install

If that's the case, the issue may not be so urgent. But it's poor
design, since it means that if a user changes language, s/he changes it

Testing in an up-to-date artful VM, when switching languages in g-c-c,
both LANG and LANGUAGE are updated in both ~/.pam_environment and
/etc/default/locale.
That VM is an artful install that has been updated daily, not an upgrade
from a previous release.

If nobody figures out what makes the variables in ~/.pam_environment be

ugly hack which may work.

This issue is present on an artful daily build as well. gdm3 somehow
