[Bug 1512673] Re: language-selector-gnome refuses to start with message "E: need Zenity
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1450147 ***

Hello,
Yes you are right (though the version used isn't the same). In Trusty it
used to work without it. Zenity is GUI made available for bash, and
gnome-language-selector uses python3.
If gnome-language-selector is dependant of im-config (why that by the
way?) then… what do you say? Should one of these two bug reports have
their title changed? "Trusty + Vivid : im-config missing zenity"?
(while the other of the two bug reports would be removed?

Title:
language-selector-gnome refuses to start with message "E: need Zenity
Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Hello,
In Ubuntu Trusty freshly installed, the gnome-language-selector
program does not start. When invoking in console it sends messages
related to python3 among which can be seen "E : Zenity missing" (or
that sort of message).
Once **zenity installed**, the program starts and **works perfectly**.
I have seen the other recent bug reports related to the program : for
me it has worked so far. (Always using it once only, just after a
fresh install to complete the eventual needed language packs which can
be missing, for the French language).
I suggest rebuilding the package, adding zenity in the list of
dependencies needed.
