Public bug reported:
When Ubuntu have missing language packages, it shows in tray System
Notification Helper message with text "Language support is incomplete,
additional packages are required".
But when user do one simple mouse click on this notification - Ubuntu
immediately asks user password with "Authentication Required" popup
window, without describing what is planned to do, which packages are
missing and will be installed.
After typing password - user will not see any useful info too - only
small window with unnamed progress bar and standard text phrases.
After process finished - there are also zero useful info, only that
process is finished.
Please show more information about this process, before ask user password!
Very useful info will be:
- How this missed packages are detected?
- Why those packages are missed?
- What packages will planned to install/upgrade (package names,
versions)?
- Total size of planned downloads.
