I have successfully installed and run language-selector 0.79.2 and accountsservice 0.6.15-2ubuntu9.5 from precise-proposed. When following the test case steps above I was prompted to install hunspell-fr as expected, even if French is not selected as my current language.

I also generated the locale zh_CN.utf8 using locale-gen() (simplified Chinese is not installed) and restarted gnome-language-selector. I was not prompted to install any Chinese language support files.

The verification of this Stable Release Update has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regresssions.

This bug was fixed in the package accountsservice - 0.6.15-2ubuntu9.5

---------------
accountsservice (0.6.15-2ubuntu9.5) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/0009-language-tools.patch:
    Prevent language-options from listing items that don't correspond
    with an installed langpack, even if there is a matching locale
    (LP: #1134364).

This bug was fixed in the package language-selector - 0.79.2

---------------
language-selector (0.79.2) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * LanguageSelector/LanguageSelector.py:
    Call missing() in language_support_pkgs.py instead of
    by_locale(), so the check for missing language support packages
    is carried out for all the installed languages, not only for the
    current system language (LP: #1134364).
  * language_support_pkgs.py:
    - Hack to prevent that users are prompted to install hunspell-de-xx
      when the enhanced (and conflicting) hunspell-de-xx-frami is
      installed (LP: #1103547).
    - Changes in available_languages() to avoid that users are prompted
      to install language support for non-installed languages. That
      could happen if there were other locales on the system but the
      locales representing the installed languages (LP: #1134364).
  * LanguageSelector/LangCache.py:
    When a language is removed, don't remove packages that are not
    language specific (LP: #37707).
  * debian/control:
    Bump the accountsservice dependency.
