Public bug reported:
The ng program that wraps ng-latin seems to require quotes around $NG in
the 'if' clause as shown below. Otherwise, if ng-latin or the other
ng-* are not installed, the 'exec $NG "$@"' will always execute rather
than notifying the user that the none of the ng-* are installed.
if [ -n "$NG" ]; then
exec $NG "$@"
else
echo "Neither ng-latin, ng-cjk, nor ng-cjk-canna found."
echo "Please install what you prefer."
fi

Description: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
Release: 20.04
The actual script is /usr/bin/ng and doesn't seem to belong to a package.
Steps:
uninstall ng-latin, ng-cjk, and ng-cjk-canna
execute: /usr/bin/ng
Expected:
message: Neither ng-latin, ng-cjk, nor ng-cjk-canna found.
Please install what you prefer.
Actual: no output as a result of executing "exec" with no arguments
