[Bug 278634] Re: [Intrepid Beta] KDE does not use the language selected during install

[Jonathan Riddell]

Colin: what are you doing to test this that makes you think it ignores
/etc/default/locale?

If I do a local build and install of kde-l10n-fr and start KDE as a new
user which /etc/default/locale is set to French it starts in French with
french locale settings (e.g. comma for decimal separator).

I can also select French from System Settings from my existing account
and all new applications start in French.

The problem as I see it is that language-pack-kde-fr-base does not
contain translations from intrepid, which means essentially no KDE
translations since we have switched to KDE 4 in intrepid.

KDE won't be able to use en_CA because there is no entry.desktop file, I
think our scripts don't add this file if it isn't already upstream, this
is bug 281779.
