It was already uploaded.  But I'm following it up with an upload of lightdm
as well (sorry, already had a branch in progress before your merge proposal
came in - just needed to log out to test it, which I've now done).

Bug description:
  PAM needs to be told explicitly by respective service to parse
  ~/.pam_environment, since the fix of http://bugs.debian.org/611136 is
  about to make it into Raring. Please see comment #29 and #30.

  Otherwise the session environment will contain the system wide locale
  settings, while the user's locale settings are ignored.
