Bug Description
When installing Alpha 6 (Hardy Heron) and choosing Greek at the start of the installation, Ubuntu configures SCIM to provide Greek writing support.
Greek writing support is provided by GTK+ and not by SCIM.
Due to this, one is not able to type Greek unless they disable SCIM and configure GTK+ IM.
The language pack for Greek (el) should not install SCIM.
It should configure GTK+ IM with the following options
a. Configure two default keyboard layouts (US English [us], Greek [gr]), with this order
b. Enable switching between layouts with Alt+Shift (on top of the default Shift+Shift).
c. Enable the Keyboard Indicator on the panel.
