Initially filed at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645478 In the "Region and Language" panel in gnome-control-center, I selected "French (Canada)" as my language. However, after restarting the computer completely, it is reset back to "English (United States)". In addition, the xdg user dirs gtk helper thingy will ask you to update the XDG folder names everytime the locale changes... Note that I am not using autologin. There are two types of scenarios: 1) [bad] gdm doesn't present me with a list of users, it only shows "Other" allowing me to type the user name and password; and that's when it forces the English localization and keyboard layout. 2) [good] gdm does show my user account with its associated image. At those times, the Canadian French locale and Canada French Dvorak keyboard layout seem to be correctly set at login. Steps to Reproduce: - You can toggle between the two scenarios simply by logging in/out multiple times. - This bug can also be reproduced semi-randomly at reboot. I'm suspecting a race condition of some sort in gdm (or maybe in Fedora's boot process, but I think it sometimes happen on user logout, so it might not be systemd's fault).
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

I haven't experienced this bug in a while, so I can't really reproduce it now. I guess it must have been fixed somewhere along the way.
