[Bug 1276072] Re: Language selection always falls back to English

[A. Scheuer]

Yes, you've got the point:  then language line is missing in
/var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer.

Moreover, /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log talks of a
/var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log, which says that directories
/usr/share/lightdm/sessions and /usr/share/lightdm/remote-sessions (this
is less important, I don't want to accept remote sessions) are missing.

I attach all that.  Thanks, I now only need either the syntax to correct
the file /var/lib/AccountsService/users/scheuer, or a way to get
AccountsService to do it (should I add a /usr/share/lightdm directory?).

Title:
  Language selection always falls back to English

Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I upgraded two amd64 computers from 13.04 to 13.10, and discovered on both that the language is set to English (whereas I selected French language at the beginning of the upgrade).
  Moreover, each time I set it back to French, dragging both French (France and Canada) and some English (UK & US) on top of the default English in the language selection list, default English comes back on top at next login.

  I even tried to modify my .pam_environment (in console mode) and the
  /etc/environment to set fr_FR as the default, no way: gnome-language-
  selector seems to force default English as default at each connection!

  Hopefully, I do understand English, but this is turning me mad.
