[Bug 1161953] [NEW] gnome-language-selector crashed with TypeError in _expand_pkg_pattern(): not enough arguments for format string

This happened suddenly after a dist-upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04. The
buggy code is not always run; the same version of language-selector
launches fine on another 13.04 installation of mine.

Anyway, running the buggy code results in a fatal error, and since it's
sometimes run at the launch of language-selector (and also when running
the check-language-support command), it prevents all use of language-
selector.

The proposed fix is obvious and harmless. I think that a FinalBetaFreeze
exception is motivated.
