(Get the code!)
In a new install of Ubuntu Precise, I cannot make any system-wide changes in the language selector (such as installing languages or clicking "Apply System-Wide"), only user-specific changes. All those controls for system-wide changes are greyed out, although my user does have sudo abilities and I would be able to enter the root password of the machine.
The machine is freshly installed, but with customizations specific to our site, e.g. ldap authentication for users. Specifically, my user is an ldap user, not a local one, and there is a group in the ldap directory which was granted sudo capability by adding it to /etc/sudoers. My user is part of that group. sudo on the command line and gksudo work fine.
