Some locales are showing ISO codes instead of names

Can you add details re your device and version
Also add the log at /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/application-legacy-ubuntu-system-settings-.log
Not seeing it on any devices I have, or is this in a desktop session?

It's on a physical device, Aquaris E4.5 with the UI set to Gaelic (gd-GB), 15.04 OTA 12.

There is something weird about the localized UI I just realized. If I set it to German (Germany), those 4 locales are showing in German (i.e. Uigurisch (China), Asturianisch (Spanien) etc) whereas the others are all showing native_name (native_country) e.g. Português (Brasil).

Attaching screenshot.

Then I have a theory (without having checked the u-s-s source code): Can this be a result of incomplete Gaelic translations of iso-codes?

I can't believe that to be the case. That would mean that German would have had to localize Uyghur, Occitan, Asturian and Scots Gaelic but NOT Spanish, French, Chinese etc.

Unless you are suggesting that somewhere in those files is the native_name and native_country which Touch pulls when building langpacks and which, in the absence of a localized name show the ISO? That can't be right either because surely the fallback is always en-US, not the native language name?

In case there is a need for a list of locales for Touch, this ought to be pulled from a Touch-specific file of ISO codes because it's very much hit and miss with those lists you linked. I wouldn't even know which one to start with and they all pretty hefty.

To clarify, German is showing a mix. It has
Asturianisch (Spanien)
Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesia)
Bahasa Melayu (Malaysia)
Bosanski (Bosna i Hercegovina)
Brezhoneg (Frañs)

Which disproves Gunnar's theory because (assuming the German team is as efficient as elsewhere), I would expect them to have completed the ISO lists and so I'd expect
Asturianisch (Spanien)
Indonesisch (Indonesian)
Malaiisch (Malaisia)
Bosnisch (Bosnien und Herzegowina)
Bretonisch (Frankreich)

Yeah, I was probably wrong. Otherwise, as you said, it should simply fall back to English.
