2013-12-18 16:25:01 Laure description I clean-installed Ubuntu 13.10 in English on my computer and set my location as "Geneva" (a Swiss city) with my keyboard as "Swiss-French". However, certain programs default to German instead of English : TexWorks, TexMaker but also the data+time app in my sidebar defaulted to German. I haven't had this issue with any of the the previous versions of Ubuntu, including 12.04 and 12.10. This is a common conception mistake where modern programs expect people and countries to have one language only (hence German for Switzerland, even though the country is multilingual) : they use the country instead of the user settings as reference. I've seen the issue with : - texworks : 0.5~svn1288-1 (installed via apt-get) - texmaker: 4.0.3-2 (installed via apt-get) - indicator-datetime: 13.10.0+13.10.20131023.2-0ubuntu1 (installed with Ubuntu 13.10) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: ubuntu-release-upgrader-core 1:0.205.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-12.19-generic 3.11.3 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-12-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CrashDB: ubuntu Date: Wed Dec 18 16:59:21 2013 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-12-12 (6 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016.1) MarkForUpload: True PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: ubuntu-release-upgrader Symptom: release-upgrade UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) I clean-installed Ubuntu 13.10 in English on my computer and set my location as "Geneva" (a Swiss city) with my keyboard as "Swiss-French".
