Title:
  Ubuntu installer doesn't install languages correctly

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This issue has been there for ages (at least 5 releases), but now I'll try to report it!
  I installed ubuntu and chose german as the language of choice.
  The installed system has german localisation which is downloaded at install time, but when I open the "languages" app it complains about missing language files.
  It wants to install the following packages:

  libreoffice-l10n-en-gb
  mythes-de-ch
  hunspell-en-ca
  libreoffice-help-en-gb
  thunderbird-locale-en-gb
  hunspell-de-ch
  hunspell-de-at
  mythes-en-au
  libreoffice-l10n-en-za

  Then in the "languages" list it displays:
  Deutsch(Deutschland)
  English(United Kingdom)
  English
  English(Australia)
  English(Canada)
  English(New Zealand)
  English(United States)

  So to sum it up:
  -Some packages shouldn't be installed: *.ch and *.at as I'm in Germany and not Austria or Switzerland, and these also aren't in the list of installed locales
  -The english dialects aren't applicable at all, I haven't chosen them

  What I would expect is that only "Deutsch(Deutschland)" and perhaps
  also "English" are installed, and all applicable packages of these
  locales are installed
