[Bug 1156670] [NEW] Cannot chose language with home on nfs export

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj):

There is no possibility to choose language in an interactive way in
Ubuntu 12.04, neither with XFCE4 nor with Gnome, neither with lightdm
nor with GDM3 when home dirs aren't on local drive.

Error message:
gdm-session-worker[2009]: AccountsService-WARNING: SetLanguage call failed: not access to HOME yet so language not saved

That's a bummer, I have users from all over the world, they need to be
able to choose their own language.
