The LANGUAGE variable can be set in ~/.profile and it would override
the LANG
variable gdm sets
Right
However I can imagine a user friendly interface for this. During the
session
startup GDM reads from ~/.dmrc clauses like:
LanguageFallback[zu] = xh:af:en_ZA:en
LanguageFallback[ua] = ru
We need a table of defaults but not in "~/.dmrc".
Of course if users what to override those in "~/.i18n"
or "~/.dmrc" that is fine.
And if the current Language preference matches any fallback clause
the
corresponding LANGUAGE variable is set up. Though this certainly should be
configured with some gnome utility, not through the GDM welcome screen.
Reasonable defaults (as /etc/skel/.dmrc) are welcome.
I think a config tool is a separate issue: the first thing
is to setup LANGUAGE currently for the different locales
and that could be done by a table in gdm for now anyway
and would be a valuable i18n UX improvement.
I think this should be considered as a feature request to upstream.
Yep
