Title:
  gnome-language-selector crashed with ValueError in
  _build_localename(): too many values to unpack

Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  SRU note
  --------
  I suggest that the linked branch is uploaded to oneiric-proposed. The change (patch attached) is identical with the change to LanguageSelector/gtk/GtkLanguageSelector.py at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/precise/language-selector/precise/revision/146

  Even if I don't know the exact reason why unicode strings may be
  passed to locale.setlocale() also in Oneiric, the fact that it
  apparently can happen is a good enough reason IMO to backport the
  Precise fix to Oneiric as an SRU, especially since the regression risk
  is zero.
