Title:
  Desktop image ignores installation language setting for locale

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The Desktop image allows a language to be chosen for the installation.
  But when the locale settings for the system are actually set, they are
  ignored.  Perhaps they are taken from the geographic location, but
  that would be a very wrong guess in countries where there is more than
  one official language.

  Below is the output of "ls" on a system that should have been
  installed in English:

  $ ls -lh
