[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#736474: lightdm: Sets incorrect LANG=en_GB.utf8 locale name | more languages

[webman at manfbraun.de]

Hello !

Iam not really firm with bugreports ... and 'reprotbug' cannot
send from my computers.
After several days (!!) of hacking in VMs and physical machines,
I think I isolated a bug in 'lightdm' - and saw, already reported.

The initial reason was a message from perl:

>
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
   LANGUAGE = "en_US:en",
   LC_ALL = (unset),
   LANG = "en_US.utf8"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
*** update-locale: Error: invalid locale settings:  LANG=en_US.utf8
<

"en_US.utf8" is in lowercase !

This happens while setup new VMs in LXC. Computerx with X(FCE),
but without lightdm do not exhibit this error.

Would like to find the responsible codeline or a fix!

Thanks anyway,
Manfred (Braun)
