Comment 7 for bug 857326

Gunnar, thank you very much for your response.

First of all, I can see that chinese is installed in Lubuntu as well as in Linux Mint Katya (See screendumps). Notice that my
preferred language = ducth (nederlands) and this language is active, but is greyed out?

When I start the language-selector after reboot, I get a crash (bug 859961).

ll /usr/share/locale-langpack reveals that nor "deutsch" nor "chinese" is installed.

After regenerating the locales, both "deutsch" and "chineses" are still in the selector (dutch is still greyed out, although it is
my preferred language. I can't select it neither ... dialog doesn't respond to the selection (due to the 859961 bug?)

>No, that's a misconception. If you change the user language from Dutch to English and log out, you end up at the login >screen. If you log in again instantly, you should see English as the display language.

Actually I switched the preferred language, logged off and logged back in. Language wasn't changed. Only after reboot did the changes take place (can't test this now, because the language-selector-dialog doesn't react on a selection).
When I changed the language, I pressed "apply systemwide"-button. (Maybe this option requires a reboot?)
