Bug description:
  trusty and wily SRU request
  ===========================

  [Impact]
  The 'im-config -l' call causes language-selector-gnome to crash for users who don't have zenity installed. The proposed change prevents this unwarranted check.

  [Test Case]
  * Uninstall zenity
  * Open a terminal window and run gnome-language-selector.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low, since the change only delays the "sanity check" until after the l-option code.

  [Original description]
  The package language-selector-gnome 0.143 from the Vivid edition fails to start, complaining zenity is missing.

  $ gnome-language-selector
  E : zenity doit être installé.
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/gnome-language-selector", line 22, in on_activate
      options=options)
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/LanguageSelector/gtk/GtkLanguageSelector.py", line 199, in __init__
      self.check_input_methods()
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/LanguageSelector/gtk/GtkLanguageSelector.py", line 54, in wrapper
      res = f(*args, **kwargs)
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/LanguageSelector/gtk/GtkLanguageSelector.py", line 454, in check_input_methods
      for (i, IM) in enumerate(self.ImConfig.getAvailableInputMethods()):
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/LanguageSelector/ImConfig.py", line 19, in getAvailableInputMethods
      inputMethods = subprocess.check_output(['im-config', '-l']).decode().split()
    File "/usr/lib/python3.4/subprocess.py", line 620, in check_output
      raise CalledProcessError(retcode, process.args, output=output)
  subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['im-config', '-l']' returned non-zero exit status 1
  $

  Once zenity is installed it starts and works perfectly.

  Thanks for fixing.

  Best regards,
  Mélodie
