[Bug 1153331] Re: "Try Ubuntu" only possible in a few languages

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

Hi Dmitrijs,

While I understand this limitation, I can think that the UI somehow
should state in which languages you can "Try Ubuntu". Now the user is
given the wrong impression that any language is available, and becomes
disappointed (unless s/he isn't lucky to speak any of the mentioned few
languages).

Title:
  "Try Ubuntu" only possible in a few languages

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I'm testing a French daily build of Ubuntu 13.04.

  Just after hitting "Test Ubuntu", I opened gnome-language-selector.
  It told me that the languages were not completely installed and I answered to remind it me later.

  Strangely, in the list of the "Language of the windows and menus", French does not appear at all, but instead I get a bunch of languages (excepted English) that I'm not using :
  - English,
  - Deutsch (Deutschalnd)
  - English (Australia)
  - English (Canada)
  - English (United Kingdom)
  - English (New Zealand)
  - English (United States)
  - Espanol
  - Portugûes (Brasil)
  - Portugûes (Portugal)
  and probably Chinese (I cannot reproduce the signs bu you can check the screenshot)

  This might be considered as "normal" as the languages are not
  completely installed (as the message said), but still remains very
  strange for a basic end user testing Ubuntu...
