Bug Description
Binary package hint: language-selector
Update: The bug has continued to exist since gutsy through hardy and intrepid -> post-installation language support install does not work properly. See the later comments in this bug for what should be done, ie. 1. (as suggested also by cjwatson in bug 277526) offering to do an apt-get update, 2. correctly installing support for the default language in all cases [now separated to bug 289165]
I installed Gutsy's daily-live from yesterday, and selected Finnish as the installation language. I did not remember to enable network connection (something a newbie doesn't often know, either), and language packs were not installed. After the installation, and after enabling the network connection so that package lists are updated, I went to language support. The language support should in this case suggest installing support for the Default Language in the system (Finnish), but instead it only suggests installing the rest of the English packages.

Ie. if something is already selected as the default language, it should be automatically be selected as a supported language too, and missing support should be offered to be installed.
