Public bug reported:
I have found that after the most recent update of the gnome-control-
center that when going to the "Region & Language" and trying to install
a language the box that displays to you which packages will need to be
installed and asks you if you do want to install them does not show,
simply nothing happens so I am unable to install them. I have also found
this to be true when I click "Language" and it should ask me to install
additional software packages as I don't have them all for my selected
language, but instead, nothing happens...
In terms of Terminal output I find that at first when I launch the
gnome-control-center I get this:
** (gnome-control-center:9882): WARNING **: Ignoring launcher gufw
(missing desktop file)
** (gnome-control-center:9882): WARNING **: Ignoring launcher
landscape-client-settings (missing desktop file)
** (gnome-control-center:9882): WARNING **: Ignoring launcher
language-selector (missing desktop file)
** (gnome-control-center:9882): WARNING **: Ignoring launcher
ubuntuone-installer (missing desktop file)
Then when I go into the "Region & Language" section I get this:
(gnome-control-center:9882): common-cc-panel-WARNING **: Language
en_GB.UTF-8 not installed, trying to install it
When I try to install a language I get this:
(gnome-control-center:9882): common-cc-panel-WARNING **: Language
aa_DJ not installed, trying to install it
And finally when I close the gnome-control-center as nothing more has
happened I get this:
(gnome-control-center:9882): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_destroy:
assertion 'GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
Though on some occasions all does work as it should, I would say that at
least half the time it does not, but if it is working one way it will
not work another way unless you restart the gnome-control-center, or at
least I have found that to be true.
I have found this issue on Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 with GNOME 3.18 (32-bit)
and Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 with GNOME 3.18 (64-bit).
