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.
