Hello momcilo78, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-control-center into disco-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/gnome-control-center/1:3.32.1-1ubuntu4.1 in a few hours, and then in
the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-disco to verification-done-disco. If it does not fix
the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag
to verification-failed-disco. In either case, without details of your
testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  Unable to set Serbian as Language

Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-control-center source package in Bionic:
  In Progress
Status in gnome-control-center source package in Disco:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  The Serbian language items, both the Cyrillic and the Latin, are not
  shown as selectable items in the Language widget in Region & Language.
  Furthermore, once that has been fixed, selecting the Serbian-Latin
  option results in the Serbian-Cyrillic language to be set.

  The proposed upload (via merge proposal) fixes both the issues.

  [Test Case]

  * Install gnome-control-center from {bionic,disco}-proposed.

  * Install the Serbian language via gnome-language-selector.

  * Open Settings -> Region & Language and open the Language widget.

  * You should see both "Serbian (Serbia)" and "Serbian (Serbia) - latin"
    in the list. Confirm that you can successfully switch to both the
    options.

  [Regression Potential]

  An explanation how the proposed fixes address the issues would be a
  bit technical, but basically we simply drop Ubuntu specific changes
  which have proved to have adverse side effects. The regression risk
  ought to be low.

  [Original description]

  Affected: 18.04.2 (did not try earlier versions of 18.04 series)
  Not affected: 16.04 - any version (UI was different)

  Preparation steps:
  1. open gnome control center
  2. open Region & Language
  3. open Manage installed languages
  4. open Install/Remove languages
  5. select Serbian, click Apply
  6. provide credentials for sudo installation
  7. wait for installation to complete
  8. click Close

  What is wrong:
  1. open gnome control center
  2. open Region & Language
  3. click Language selection
  4. Serbian is not visible

  Notes:
  - Serbian is visible for the Formats selection
  - Any other language I thought of: (Macedonian, Croatian, Bosnian, Russion...) simple work.

  Here is some dpkg output on installaed packages matching sr (Serbian)
