--- Comment #17 from markzzzsmith@yahoo.com.au --- (In reply to Adam Williamson from comment #14)
Discussed at 2013-06-12 freeze exception review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-06-12/f19final- blocker-review-5.2013-06-12-16.01.log.txt . Agreed this is rejected as a freeze exception: given the way F19 does locale selection - it's directly tied to translation availability - there isn't a small, simple fix here, we can't just 'add' AU somehow. Any change that fixes this would necessarily be a larger scale revamp of how locale selection actually works, per comment #11. So it's not appropriate for a freeze exception, it's more F20 stuff.
I'm happy enough with it being dealt with properly in a future release of Fedora. However, would it be possible to have the system-config-language package installed by default in F19 to at least make changing the locale significantly easier? If people go looking for a utility to change the locale, and system-config-language is installed, I think they'll guess that this is how they change it.
