A man without a country (or language)

[SteveRiley]

Hm... just noticed this today; dunno how long my system has been in this state. Anyone else seen this?

[Buddlespit]

Ya, I had noticed that as soon as Saucy made it's debute. But I haven't noticed any impact on my system, so I haven't bothered with it. Just for your information, adding different translations doesn't fix it.

Same here. OK, this is a weird problem. Something funky with locales maybe?

[vinnywright]

humm I'll bump up to 4.11.3 and see what happens ,,,,,or should I wait so we can compare things as you think of them

VINNY

[SteveRiley]

Come to think of it, I believe I noticed this right after upgrading to Saucy, which is KDE 4.11.2. I doubt your upgrade will change anything.

[SteveRiley]

Wait... do you have any ibus-related packages installed?

[vinnywright]

UUuuu how did you get KDE-4.11.3 anyway ?

VINNY

[vinnywright]

yup....

Hm, I remove all iBus stuff because I don't need any input method stuff. Maybe language selection is now tied up with that? I'll have to check.

4.11.3 is in the kubuntu-updates PPA.

[vinnywright]

looks like stuff is still building over their (kubuntu-updates) ,,,,or is that just a constant process ?

VINNY

[SteveRiley]

It's ongoing.
