Hmm.. Yes it is. Unlike what I assumed in my comments above, there seems
to be an issue beyond bug #1294858.
I installed Ubuntu 18.04 with these selections:
* English language
* Normal installation
* London (UK) as the time zone location
This resulted in en_GB.UTF-8 being set as the locale:
$ cat /etc/default/locale
# File generated by update-locale
LANG="en_GB.UTF-8"
And these are the additional packages which Language Support suggests
that I install:
$ check-language-support | tr ' ' '\n'
hunspell-en-au
hunspell-en-ca
hunspell-en-gb
hunspell-en-za
hyphen-en-ca
hyphen-en-gb
libreoffice-help-en-gb
libreoffice-l10n-en-gb
libreoffice-l10n-en-za
mythes-en-au
thunderbird-locale-en-gb
I.e. several British packages which ought to be installed already. This
command should not output anything:
$ check-language-support -l en_GB | tr ' ' '\n'
hunspell-en-gb
hyphen-en-gb
libreoffice-help-en-gb
libreoffice-l10n-en-gb
thunderbird-locale-en-gb
but it does.
So it looks like the installer behaves, with respect to language
support, as if I had installed with the en_US.UTF-8 locale.
Not sure that 16.04 behaves this way. In any case it's incorrect
behavior and should be fixed.
