            Bug ID: 103391
           Summary: Setting different languages on shell and Wayland
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: wayland
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mousavi.arash at gmail.com

**Background:**

Using Gnome on X, I'm able to set the gnome language from it's control panel
setting, and then set the shell language differently like this:

```
export LANG en_US.utf8
export LC_ALL en_US.utf8
export LC_CTYPE en_US.utf8
```

i.e. If I choose Persian in gnome control panel, the interface will be Persian,
but I can still use English programs on command line.

**What happens:**

Using Wayland on gnome, the interface will convert to English while gnome
settings still shows Persian, unless I unset all LANG environment variables.

**How it should be:**

I'm expecting to be able to use different language in Wayland and my shell, as
in X.

P.S. I'm not sure what component I have to choose or if this is the right place
to report this bug.
