[Bug 681709] Re: mixed locale in authentication dialog

[fredtdtje]

Note that in 11.04, not only the authentication dialog, but also the "installing..." notification popup uses different languages.
On my system, "Downloading package xxx" appears in Dutch, whereas "Preparing package xxx" appears in English. This is a familiar sight. Only thing is, it reminds me very much of MS Windows... :(

Title:
  mixed locale in authentication dialog

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  Update Manager's authentication dialog comes up with a mixture of English and Swedish, see the attached screenshot.
  I'm not seeing this language mixture in other authentication dialogs, such as when starting Synaptic.

  I have adjusted my locale to have an English-language desktop with a
  Swedish locale:

  LANG=sv_SE.utf8
  LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8
  LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_NUMERIC=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_TIME=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_COLLATE=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_MONETARY=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8
  LC_PAPER=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_NAME=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_ADDRESS=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_TELEPHONE=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_MEASUREMENT=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_IDENTIFICATION=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_ALL=

  (About the different settings of LANG and LANGUAGE: that's a mystery
  to me, since my .profile sets them both to en_US.utf8.)
