No Keyboard Layout Indicator in GNOME 3.6.2, Ubuntu 13.04

[riderplus]

I use Ubuntu 13.04 from a fresh install. I added the GNOME 3 team PPA, upgraded. There is no Keyboard Layout Indicator.

Actually after a clean install of Ubuntu 13.04 there is no Keyboard Layout Indicator at all. Cool...

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Another strange behaviour occurs when I do the following:
1. Install Ubuntu 13.04
2. Add the Gnome3 team PPA
3. Install Gnome shell

Then what happens is that the Keyboard Layout Indicator shows up, but it's not functional. It doesn't accept more than the two languages that I have chosen at the beginning, and nothing more than the English language works when I switch to other Layouts. But if I use the shortcut to switch between the Layouts, it works, it gives me the Layout I want.
Please fix this, thank you!

This bug is for 13.04.
#1045914 is for 12.10.

Should they be separated?

same thing happens with ubuntu 13.04 and gnome shell 3.8.1 (added from Gnome3 team PPA).

This also the case with ubuntu-gnome-desktop

Using 13.04, I don't seem to be able to set up an another keyboard layout in the first place...

Can't even change layouts with:
ubuntu-GNOME 13.04 (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/releases/13.04/release/)
GNOME Shell 3.6.3.1

Will this be fixed if I upgrade to ubuntu-GNOME 13.10? I really need to change layouts!

This has been finally fixed in Saucy (13.10) ! I've been using it for a few days !
