[Bug 1610735] [NEW] language support not fully setup after installation (this has happened both times I have installed 16.04) most users would probably encounter this as a probmel with the sppelling check in Libre Office

[John Cobb]

Public bug reported:

Note I was doing a full install of 16.04.1 not upgrade (didn't seem to
be a choice for that in the reporting process) . I saw no unexpected
reports/message during the installation. My installation was a custom
one in that I elected to have a separate partition for home but
otherwise standard. It has happened on two different machines (the only
machines I have tried). In both cases I have windows installed along
side (one Windows 10 and this machine windows 7) The windows 10 also has
the Intel SDD disc cache setup). I noticed the problem when running
Libre Office as the spelling check wasn't working and after a lot of
casting around I noticed on some list or other the suggestion that
Language support was not setup - and LO it wasn't. I had no problem then
setting it up and doing so did indeed cure the problem. This therefore
cannot be described as a serious inconvenience to me, beyond a day
tearing hair. But if my experience is at all common it may cause a fair
amount of general frustration.
