Hi Ikuya,

A couple of questions:

* Which LANG value is set by /etc/default/locale?

* Has the locale for that value been generated?

* Where/how did you set the user specific value for LANG? (I'm assuming
that you did not use Language Support or any other GUI.)

There is more to say about the reasons for the current behavior, but
I'll await your answers before going into that.
