Bug Description

There is no issue in Installing process at the ubiquity for locale settings
I set up locale as this in ubiquity

locale : seoul
language : Korean
keyboard : Korean(101/104)

but, At the first boot up after installation
System shows me wrong settings
some are correct , some are not
please, see the attatchment png file

In the language support ,
It should have shown to me a Korean language and regional formats in Korean
but it doesn't , English was default and the Regional Formtas either

I am not sure if it is related to system ,or gnome-language-selector(language supprot), or ubiquity though
I report it to the fisrt assumption ubiquity category

I have checked all the locale related settings from 14.04 ~ 15.10
/etc/locale.alias
/etc/default/locale
/etc/timezone
/etc/localtime
all of those were good,

the second assumptioin is the package 'language-selector-gnome'
it seems to be changed somehow due to add fcitx packages.
it may goes wrong in the middle of the adding fcitx packages.

Ubuntu 15.10 Unity, Gnome, MATE, Xubuntu 15.10, Lubuntu 15.10, These are the OSes this bug happens to
but, It doesn't happen to Kubuntu 15.10

The only different thing which related to locale setting among them is language support application (gnome-language-support).
There is no language support application in Kubuntu 15.10.
Now, I think that gnome-language-support package is the most suspicious source of this bug.

gnome-language-selector package , the application name is language support.

and it doesn't have language support .

When I install this problem in Japanese, I confirm it in flavor below (beta 2):
 - Ubuntu (Desktop Image) 15.04
 - Xubuntu 15.04
 - Lubuntu 15.04

When I referred to "Language Support",
installation added the language that I chose under the first in a list of "Language for menu and windows",
This should have to increase on the first on the list.

In addition, as for Ubuntu GNOME 15.10, language indication is normal.
However, an item of "Language" is displayed with "English (United States)" in "Region & Language" (Settings).
As a result of having installed package language-selector-gnome,
I confirmed that the same problem occurred in Ubuntu GNOME.

As for list, 15.04 mentioned above, 15.10 is all right by an error:
 - Ubuntu (Desktop Image) 15.10
 - Xubuntu 15.10
 - Lubuntu 15.10
(and Ubuntu GNOME 15.10)

add it there, I met similar issue in elementary OS Freya 0.3.1 latest distribution.
In Ubiquity , translation of ubiquity doesn't work for it properly.
I chose Korean for installing language, but it showed English.

Fedora 22 GNOME, elemantary OS Freya 0.3.1 , and Ubuntu 15.10 & Derivatives, among them , I assume the kernel issue of timezone & locale settings which the kernel higher 3.19 latest and over 4.0 latest

Probably, We might need to check timestamp also.
