Comment:
I sometimes have similar problem ( Lost connection to server) while trying to have english menus on a french system and i load a big game from the client, without any server launched before.
I configure with
./configure --enable-gitrev --enable-debug=yes --enable-gprof --enable-client=gtk3.22,qt
Depending on how i launch the client (with no server running) , in a terminal :
LANG=en /usr/local/bin/freeciv-gtk3.22 # this command line often crashes
LANGUAGE=en /usr/local/bin/freeciv-gtk3.22 # this command often works smoothly
I have not tried to launch a server, then a client in a different language.

Ticket details:
I'm testing 3.0.0-beta2+ (compiled in kubuntu 20.04, up to date)
When I try to start a new game from the client, it sometimes (looks random) get an error from the server, and goes back to the initial menu (welcome screen).
If I try the same again it uses to end working after 2 or 3 attempts. The more players in the game (or the larger the map, I'm not sure), it seems the higher the chances to fail.
It happens with the default ruleset and default options (civ2civ3, hexemplio), and also when I chose another rulesets or tilesets (I have tried classic and civ2civ3_earth).
These are the backtraces In debug mode (I have tested gtk2 and gtk3.22):
3: Uncompressing of the packet stream failed. The connection will be closed now.
1: Lost connection to server: decoding error.
