Hi Sebastien,

Thanks for your comments, and sorry for the confusion.

Ideally this bug report should have been splitted into a hunspell/frami
bug (fixed) and a drag-and-drop bug (won't fix) and yet another bug
should have been filed about the lang support check not carried out for
all installed languages (fixed). OTOH I think that the changelog clearly
documents the nature of the changes.

Added a test case, which unfortunately might raise new questions. Please
don't ask them. ;-) 0.79.2 takes care of it all.

I'd have unsubscribed ubuntu-sponsors anyway, since the branch is
already in the precise queue (mentioned on bug 37707) - thanks, Martin.
The changes relate to code that Martin wrote last year, and he has
reviewed it all.

** Description changed:

  Nomination of the fix of this bug for a Precise SRU
  ---------------------------------------------------
  [Impact]
  Users who have the enhanced "frami" version of the German hunspell dictionary 
installed are incorrectly prompted to install the conflicting standard version 
each time they launch language-selector.
  
  Philipp Gassmann: "I also think that this fix should be backported to
  precise because of its usage in enterprises, where multiple locales are
  more common and the preferences of users diverse."
  
- [Regression Potential] 
+ [Test Case]
+ Steps to reproduce with version 0.79 or 0.79.1:
+ - Install German.
+ - Make German (Germany) the system wide regional formats setting.
+ - Install hunspell-de-de-frami, which will remove hunspell-de-de since -frami 
is an enhanced version.
+ - Launch language-selector, and you'll be prompted to install hunspell-de-de.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
  The fix does two things:
  1. Prevents the incorrect prompts.
  2. Makes the check for incomplete language support cover all the installed 
languages, and not only the current system language (which is considered a fix 
of a related not reported bug).
  
  The risk for regression is low.
  
  Original description
  --------------------
  After dismissing the notification, that language-support is incomplete, drag 
and drop of the available languages does not work.
  
  Workaround:
  1. Press Ctrl and Drag something > Does not change order.
  2. Release Ctrl. > Drag and drop ordering works.
  
  Related Problem: The "frami" versions of the German hunspell packs are not 
recognised as a replacement for the default hunspell.
  (e.g. hunspell-de-ch-frami is enhanced variant of hunspell-de-ch)
  So every time gnome-language-selector is started, it asks to install 
hunspell-de-ch which conflicts without any notice!
