Bug Description

As the attatched screenshot, after I checked "Chinese(Traditional)" in the "Install / Remove Languages" UI and apply I only found Han (HongKong)(zh_HK) in the list of "Language of menus and windows:" but not Han (Taiwan)(zh_TW) as well, please acknowledge that currently Taiwan is the biggest country using Traditional Chinese.

However despite of the absense of the zh_TW locale according to `check-language-support --language=zh_TW` command zh_TW packages are also installed by language selector.

This bug is reproduced under Ubuntu 14.04.2 install media's live system with language-selector-* packages all installed to the latest version.

Can you please open a terminal window, run the command

echo $(/usr/share/language-tools/language-options)

and show us what it outputs.

I tested on my 14.04 main system instead of installation media though.

Please note that the list in Language Support consists of those language codes. If zh_TW is one of the select languages, you find it at the top of the list (with dark fonts), not at the bottom.
