[Bug 1163142] [NEW] language support does not finish

[Herbert Post]

Public bug reported:

While running gnome-language-selector the process hangs while 
applying changes during "preconfiguring packages"
No matter how long this process runs it never finishes.

These processes are running
posth    11234     1 21 09:08 ?        00:00:03 /usr/bin/python3.3 /usr/bin/gnome-language-selector

Description:	Ubuntu Raring Ringtail (development branch)
Release:	13.04

language-selector-gnome:
  Installed: 0.108
  Candidate: 0.108
  Version table:
 *** 0.108 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The program should allow me to install an extra language (dutch for me).
But the problems arise at startup of the program or after I stop the process and manually try to install the dutch language.

The process halts during "preconfiguring packages"
