When I installed the Greek language I got Chinese. Like..I thought I had a solution, was going to reinstall any ways..but..nope..Chinese. Curious if anyone came across this, if you have Black Opal, you can install the language without changing it. I thought it might be easier to do through terminal but I am not sure where to find the list of languages in code, like fr

There was also a problem installing language due to the gimps otto repo.

dear blackwolf thx for the reply.Iam greek and i have installed the greek language but i cant find it in the dropdown list.After that i uniinstalled it and install it again but in the details window i saw unpacking failed no such file or directory.It seems it is a bug in ubuntu 12.04 or what else can i do?For me it is not a prob to continue working in english but my kids may have because i want them trying to work with linux.
