the Ignoring launcher messages are unrelated.

I am testing this on Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 with GNOME 3.19, but no matter
what I do, I don't seem to be able to install your PPA's version of the
gnome-control-center over the current version, not even removing the old
one and reinstalling, it just reinstalls the old one.

@Tim, Ok, I have tested your version on Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 Beta 1 with
GNOME 3.18, and though it hangs longer, it still gives a similar output
and a segmentation fault. I can provide the core dump if you want?

Tim,

I was wrong in comment #55 at bug #1551283. The problem I had was (first
time) *switching* of display language; *installing* a new language from
Region & Language worked fine for me (still does).

g-c-c 1:3.18.2-1ubuntu6~xenial2 in your PPA fixes the language switching
issue for me. The warning messages still appear when you start g-c-c
from terminal, but apparently they are/were unrelated to my issue.

@Tim, I have tested again using the updated packages in your PPA and now
it crashes immediately as I open the "Region & Language" section, I
don't even see the section, as soon as I click the button to go there it
crashes and the output in Terminal is this:

** (gnome-control-center:1762): WARNING **: Ignoring launcher gufw (missing 
desktop file)

** (gnome-control-center:1762): WARNING **: Ignoring launcher 
landscape-client-settings (missing desktop file)

ubuntuone-installer (missing desktop file)

(gnome-control-center:1762): common-cc-panel-WARNING **: Language 
en_GB.UTF-8 not installed, trying to install it
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

So that update seems to break things even more...

Possibly closed prematurely, since there is g-c-c code in Tim's PPA
which should get in. Adding a g-c-c task to denote it.

The same warning messages as Nikita showed in comment #13 IIRC,
including "Language ja_JP.UTF-8 not installed". (Not the "segmentaion
fault" message, of course, but that's not a warning OTOH...)

well I fixed the two places that I found causing warnings, but maybe
there are more in the less utilised code paths. Though pretty sure I
squished the one that was causing the issues (when accountservice didnt
yet have a language registered)

Yes, it would be an easy fix, and wouldn't hurt anywhere else AFAICT.
Would the change help in 16.04 (i.e. are we in a hurry)?

[Tim]

Gunnar, part of this comes down to confusion between language vs locale,
sometime the locale gets stuffed into language var and passed to
language2locale

The following returns a blank line also
/usr/share/language-tools/language2locale ja_JP.UTF-8

could it instead just return the inputted locale?

[Bug 1556684] Re: gnome-control-center.real crashed with SIGSEGV in g_utf8_validate()

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

I think the language2locale script does the right thing:

$ /usr/share/language-tools/language2locale ja_JP
ja_JP.UTF-8
$ /usr/share/language-tools/language2locale ja
ja_JP.UTF-8
$ 

Two thoughts (haven't looked at the g-c-c code at this time):

* If the locale has not (yet) been generated, i.e. is not included in a
'locale -a' output, language2locale will just return a newline. Can it
be that the script is called prematurely?

* Can it possibly be a "UTF-8" vs. "utf8" confusion?

[Bug 1556684] Re: gnome-control-center.real crashed with SIGSEGV in g_utf8_validate()

although that would be harmless.
