Bug Description

Binary package hint: gdm

Hello,

After the last gdm upgrade (2.30.5-0ubuntu4.1) my locale was reseted from pt_BR to English. Changing the locale before login does not fixes the problem.

My workaround was to downgrade gdm to version 2.30.5-0ubuntu4+langfixes~maverick1, from backports.

$ apt-cache policy gdm
gdm:
  Instalado: 2.30.5-0ubuntu4+langfixes~maverick1
  Candidato: 2.30.5-0ubuntu4.1
  Tabela de versão:
