How to set Chinese as Ubuntu system language?
I doubt Chinese is not my Ubuntu system language.

可能是源没设置好。需要安装的包有：
language-pack-gnome-zh
language-pack-zh
language-support-fonts-zh
language-support-input-zh
language-support-translations-zh
language-support-zh

楼主你可以试着装一下看看。

正在读取软件包列表... 完成
正在分析软件包的依赖关系树
Reading state information... 完成
现在没有可用的软件包 scim，但是它被其它的软件包引用了。
这可能意味着这个缺失的软件包可能已被废弃，
或者只能在其他发布源中找到
可是下列的软件包取代了它：
libscim8c2a
E: 软件包 scim 还没有可供安装的候选者


what's wrong??

pkill scim && scim -d

OK！
