[Bug 238634] Re: gimp (or any other gnome app) should pull in the respective language-pack-gnome-*

[Arne Goetje]

The issue reported here is a very valid one. I have added some code to
language-selector to find missing language-packs and other localization
related packages, depending on the software being installed.

What still needs to be done is to modify the package manager(s) to call
check-language-support (in the language-selector-common package) and
install the packages reported by this tool.

The installer uses this method already to find missing packages at
install time.

Relevant options to call check-language-support with:
 -l $languagecode : check only for this particular language. If not specified, will check for all languages installed on the system through the respective language-packs.
 -p $list_of_packages : list of packages, separated by comma. These are the packages which are gong to be installed. check-language-support will scan for missing localization packages related to these. If not specified, it will check according to all installed and to-be-installed packages on the system.
