Public bug reported:

I installed Ubuntu 11.10 five days ago. In System Settings, I set the
languages as English (US), French, and Brazilian Portuguese in that
order. For four days, all the desktop and window labels and drop-down
menus and content of windows (such as the System Settings window) were
in English as I intended. Then, on the fifth day, in the middle of a
session and without warning, all the labels and drop-down menus switched
into French. I was not working in French and had not yet worked in
French on this new installation.

I went to to the System Settings, Language window and confirmed that the
settings had not changed. I re-started the computer but nothing changed.
Finally, I removed French and Brazilian Portuguese from the list and re-
booted the computer. Now, I have a mix of English and French labels and
drop-down menus and even some of the icon labels in the System Settings
window are in French.

I want to have all labels and menus revert to English only. What do I
need to do?

Thank you.  KJM
