language-selector 0.63 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

language-selector (0.63) precise; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * LanguageSelector/LanguageSelector.py: Fix KeyError crash on a nonexisting
    package. (LP: #843430)
  * language_support_pkgs.py: Add PackageKit WhatProvides() plugin for
    "locale()" search. Register it in setup.py.
  * LanguageSelector/LangCache.py, data/blacklist, setup.py: Drop support for
    data/blacklist, we haven't needed it for a long time, and don't intend to
    bring back this hack.
  * dbus_backend/ls-dbus-backend: Drop GetMissingPackages{,Async} methods. The
    current code isn't using them, and there is no need to have this in a
    D-BUS service. language_support_pkgs works fine as user in frontends.
  * Drop tests/test_dbus_backend.py. It only exercised above method, not the
    "set system-wide locale" bits.
  * Drop LanguageSelector/CheckLanguageSupport.py,
    dbus_backend/ls-dbus-backend: Not used by anything any more, obsoleted by
    language_support_pkgs.py.
  * LanguageSelector/LanguageSelector.py: Reimplement getMissingLangPacks()
    using language_support_pkgs.py. This gets rid of a lot of redundant and
    bad code.
  * Change code to use the LanguageSelector.LangCache namespace more
    explicitly, to make it easier to get rid of LangCache.
  * LanguageSelector/LangCache.py: Remove yet another copy of the pkg_depends
    evaluation logic, and some more dead code, rewrite using
    language_support_pkgs.
  * Drop tests.moved/. Unused, no automatic tests, not very useful.
  * LanguageSelector/LangCache.py, LanguageSelector/qt/QtLanguageSelector.py:
    Drop last remainders of the languageSupport* info, language-support-* were
    dropped several cycles ago.

  [ Gunnar Hjalmarsson ]
  * Make the LANG variable, which up to now has represented regional
    formats, denote the display language instead (LP: #877610).
  * Make use of accountsservice's FormatsLocale property and
    SetFormatsLocale method when selecting a user's regional formats.
    (LP: #866062)
  * When setting the system-wide language, ensure that the system
    regional formats locale is set in order to prevent surprise
    changes of the formats.
  * data/LanguageSelector.ui: Text about rebooting no longer
    applicable, so removed.
  * LanguageSelector/LocaleInfo.py: Encode @variant string in the
    translate() function as UTF-8 to avoid a UnicodeDecodeError if a
    locale with @variant is selected for regional formats.
  * debian/control: Bump accountsservice dependency to >= 0.6.15-2ubuntu3,
    to ensure that we have the new SetFormatsLocale method.
  * debian/control: Make im-switch a dependency of language-selector-gnome,
    since it's no longer a dependency of ibus (LP: #908762).
