Gnome locale



I'm not sure if this is a problem with my local setup or if something
has changed with the packaging of Gnome in the last few months, but
Gnome seems to be convinced that it's running with a UK locale. All of
the menus are in "proper" (UK) English. "Colours", "organisations",
"Wastebasket" instead of "Trash", etc. (Ironically, my English
(American) spell checker is showing the above as misspelled.)

Looking at my system settings the only thing that's suspect is my
LANGUAGE setting.

demonbane@Thief:~$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US:en_GB:en
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

What's strange is that when I set up the "locales" package I didn't
select any GB items. I just reconfirmed it (wajig reconfigure locales)
and the only locales I have selected in there are US.

Any ideas if the above could be causing this behavior, and, if so, how
to change it?
