[Bug 803858] Re: No language chooser on login screen in LightDM

 

@Gunnar, It seems the language chooser behavior is a bit strange.  Below
is my test steps on Beta1.

1. At Installation, select language: Simplified Chinese, and location:
Taiwan.  The assumption is many Chinese work in Taiwan , and vice versa,
who usually prefer to see Simplified Chinese UI.

2. After installation, ran update manager, then updated language pack as
usual.

3. I found the installed languages in language-selector was Taiwanese-
Chinese-English which should be Chinese-Taiwanese-English, and the
character of folder is in Traditional Chinese which should be in
Simplified Chinese.  Please see the attachment.
