> Changing the locale works as expected,

Not sure what you mean.

* What is "the" locale? 
* Changing it where?
* What is your expectation?

Now, I have to admit I am also guilty of not being clear about the locale part.

On a Windows system, there is the "language to use for non-Unicode programs"
setting; there is the set of enabled keyboard layouts (and the default one),
there is the choice of "country", there is "regional format" and maybe other
settings.

On a Unix-like system, we have the different environment variables: LANG
LANGUAGE LC_CTYPE LC_MESSAGES LC_ALL, and there's also /etc/timezone . We also
have the DE UI language, and we have the set of keyboard layouts.


> confirming comment 1.

I didn't understand comment 1. If things "worked as expected" I would not file
this bug.

I don't understand why you're dismissing this so blithely, this is actually a
rather fundamental problem which came up in our chat with Jonathan (who I am
CCing) as an example of something we are so used to having fixed personally
long ago, so that we no longer notice its significance to new users.
