Better then that you don't see it be installed. ;-)
We changed language-selector in this respect a while ago to prevent
situations where a user selects a language without even knowing that
available language support is missing. That change should have been
accomplished by a change in the installer back then. Now I'm hoping that
we can fix this inconsistency for 14.04 instead.

Title:
Installer does not install all language support packages
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
My very first own package, mythes-sv, has just been sponsored into
Debian and Ubuntu. :)
It's a Swedish thesaurus for LibreOffice, and if I install Swedish via
language-selector, it's pulled as expected through /usr/share
/language-selector/data/pkg_depends.
However, when I did a fresh install with Swedish as the selected
language, and connected to Internet, mythes-sv was not installed at
first login. My first theory was that it might be due to the fact that
it's in universe, but when I opened language-selector, there were
several other language support packages missing, most of them in main.
I would think that the desired behavior is that as long as you are
connected to the net while installing, the installer should pull all
the applicable language support packages, not only some of them. So
the only situation when language-selector should need to prompt you
about not installed language support packages when you open it should
be if one or more packages were added to the archive.
