Public bug reported:
> lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Release: 16.04
I believe that language support is not correctly installed configured. I
was lead to the gnome-language-selector by trying to understand why the
Ubuntu Software app failed to find any applications/search its database.
One solution proposed was to change language selections from Language
Support in settings. When I tried this the only languages available for
selection are US English and English. Other languages, including
Australian English were visible in the list but 'greyed-out'.
I failed by any means to install further language support, including
using the 'Install/Remove Languages' button on the "Language Support
dialog.
When I trued to report this problem I used the system app to find the
process. It is called gnome-language-selector in the process list and
process properties. ubuntu-bug said "dpkg-query: no packages found
matching gnome-language-selector". But there it was in the process list.
I then used ubuntu-bug -w to initiate this bug report.
In summary:
Ubuntu Software Center GUI application does not work because of some
configuration/software error in 'Settings -> Language Support'
