Actually, this bug might be for gnome-language-selector. 
If you have a look at your regional and language settings, it seems that so long as your chosen language is any variant of english, it suggests to install all the available language stuff (including libreoffice files) for ALL english possibilities.

For example, I've already got most of the en-gb ones installed already on an as-needed basis, and it's telling me to install the following or to remind it later:
 
gimp-help-en
libreoffice-help-en-us
hunspell-en-ca
hyphen-en-ca
hyphen-en-gb
mythes-en-au
hunspell-en-us
wamerican
libreoffice-help-en-gb
mythes-en-us
libreoffice-l10n-en-za
hunspell-en-au
hyphen-en-us
hunspell-en-za

I'm not sure there's really an issue here...other than the language-
selector is perhaps not pushy enough that you should install some more
of the packages for en-gb. Noone wants it getting annoying, and you
_are_ free to install en-gb packages later? I guess that since english
US (default) is still understandable to an English UK reader, this was
never considered critical.

Title:
  Language support not installed matching locale

Status in language-pack-en package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When Ubuntu is installed with UK locale settings during setup, all of
  the language support is not installed and some applications e.g.
  LibreOffice display with non-UK English. The extra language support is
  prompted to be installed *the first time* the user accesses the
  language options (see screenshot attached).

  When this language support is installed, these applications then
  (correctly) display menus etc in UK English.

  Ubuntu setup appears to not install the matching locale languages.
