ggplot call changes locale LC_NUMERIC variable
I am struggling with a strange behaviour of R/ggplot.
Starting a fresh R session and calling sessionInfo() gives

After calling the following two lines of code
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(data.frame(a=1:5, b=1:5), aes(a, b)) + geom_point()
My R-session mysteriously changes the decimal separator from a dot to a comma. Typing 1.2 returns
1,2
All plots I generate have the comma as the decimal separator. Calling sessionInfo() returns

Notice how the LC_NUMERIC value has changed. I assume this causes the change in the decimal separator, but I have no idea how that makes sense.
This is something that happened after installing a fresh Mint version together with a fresh, up-to-date R version.
Does someone have an idea of what could cause this?
