[Bug 1322968] Re: Changing country leads to invalid locale

 

Lars, thanks for investigating.

I'm pretty sure the "resolved downstream" status is referring to this
bug being marked as "Won't Fix" by Herald above. The patching mentioned
is no longer there, so it's definitely not a Kubuntu issue.

Based on that, and that this bug was initially filed against Kubuntu
14.04 (which used Plasma 4 and an *entirely different codebase*), I'm
going to close this bug as "Won't Fix".

What we need here is an entirely new bug report. While this bug report
may be related, it's not the same bug since it's no longer working with
the same code. Please type "ubuntu-bug kde-runtime" in a terminal window
and follow the instructions to file a new bug, then please file a new
bug upstream at https://bugs.kde.org to alert the upstream as well.

Part of bug reporting is having the willingness to put in work to help
report it to the right place(s) to help resolve the issue, so if you are
not willing to do that, please do not report a new bug and please do not
comment on this one.

Title:
  Changing country leads to invalid locale

Status in kde-runtime package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  New installation of Kubuntu 14.04 and upgraded via kubuntu-ppa.
  Initially, country is set to "United States". The locale settings are
  the following:

  ~/.kde/env$ cat setlocale.sh 
  export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LANGUAGE=en:el:en 
  export LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LC_NAME=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LC_ADDRESS=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LC_TELEPHONE=en_US.UTF-8 
  export LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8 

  Then, I change Country to Greece, via System Settings. Locale changes
  as follows:

  export LANG=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LANGUAGE=en:el:en 
  export LC_NUMERIC=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_TIME=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_MONETARY=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_PAPER=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_NAME=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_ADDRESS=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_TELEPHONE=en_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_MEASUREMENT=en_GR.UTF-8 

  As far as I know, en_GR.UTF-8 is not a valid entry. A severe loss of
  functionality is that accents cannot be set properly to greek vowels.
  Changing manually setlocale.sh to:

  export LANG=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LANGUAGE=en:el:en 
  export LC_NUMERIC=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_TIME=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_MONETARY=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_PAPER=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_IDENTIFICATION=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_NAME=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_ADDRESS=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_TELEPHONE=el_GR.UTF-8 
  export LC_MEASUREMENT=el_GR.UTF-8 

  solves the issue.
