[Bug 590108] Re: User get wrong system language after executing oem-config, if he is a foreigner in the country he selected in timezone select stage

[Kevin Huang]

Just test Ubuntu 11.10 yesterday.  It seems the issue was still there.

1. At Installation, select language: Simplified Chinese, and location:
Taiwan. The assumption is many Chinese work in Taiwan , and vice versa,
who usually prefer to see Simplified Chinese UI.

2. After installation, ran update manager, then updated language pack as
usual.

3. I found the installed languages in language-selector was Taiwanese-
Chinese-English which should be Chinese-Taiwanese-English, and the
character of folder is in Traditional Chinese which should be in
Simplified Chinese. Please see the attachment.
