[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

I have updated my system and chose "Catalan" language as my locale
everywhere. If I enter "locale" at a command line, I get the following:

LANG=ca_ES.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=ca:en_US:en
LC_CTYPE="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_TIME=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_NAME=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_ALL=

Notice the wrong string in language and and the empty string in LC_ALL.
Some programs which are localized in Catalan don't start in Catalan,
unless I redefine the variable LANGUAGE to:

LANGUAGE= ca:ca_ES:ca
