           Summary: need some exception to have LANG=en_US in grub.conf
                    for CIJK
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW

    Classification: Fedora
    Target Release: ---


Description of problem:
Putting CIJK locale to the kernel parameters doesn't make any sense since VT
isn't capable to display any CIJK characters. as we have a sort of hacks to
prevent enabling CIJK locale on VT in /etc/profile.d/lang.sh, new-kernel-pkg
should have similar hack.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
grubby-7.0.16-1.fc14.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.put LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 as the kernel parameter in grub.conf
2.boot
3.try login on VT

Actual results:
the broken localized strings on the password prompt appears.

Expected results:
should be readable.

Additional info:
This issue is raised on rawhide only since upstart doesn't have a look at LANG
to spawn any processes but systemd does.
