[Bug 1562279] [NEW] Can't set en_NZ locale

 

Public bug reported:

After updating language-pack-en and language-pack-en-base in Xubuntu
16.04, I can no longer set en_NZ.UTF-8 as my locale in lightdm-greeter.

Current locale, after fiddling with language support, is:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_TIME=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_NAME=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_NZ.UTF-8
LC_ALL=

Previously, everything was "en_NZ.UTF-8"

I imagine that the same issue is going to apply to a number of English-
language locales other than Australia, Canada, UK and US. These four,
plus a generic "en" (which appears to default to en_US) are all that are
displayed in the lightdm-greeter language menu.
