Bug Description
Caveat: I'm not (yet) a phone user, so this bug report is based on observations when testing u-s-s on the trusty desktop.
In "Language & Text", the list of display language options presented seems not to be optimal. I have German installed, and the list includes three German options: Deutch, Schweizer Hochdeutch, and Österreichisches Deutch. However, there is only one German translation available, and whichever of those three options you select, LANGUAGE is assigned "de" or "de_DE" and LANG is assigned "de_DE.UTF-8".
I noticed that the language options list was recently addressed via bug #1234236.
On the desktop, the script /usr/share/
Possibly it would be a good idea to consider using that script also in u-s-s.
