Bug Description

Note I was doing a full install of 16.04.1 not upgrade (didn't seem to be a choice for that in the reporting process) . I saw no unexpected reports/message during the installation. My installation was a custom one in that I elected to have a separate partition for home but otherwise standard. It has happened on two different machines (the only machines I have tried). In both cases I have windows installed along side (one Windows 10 and this machine windows 7) The windows 10 also has the Intel SDD disc cache setup). I noticed the problem when running Libre Office as the spelling check wasn't working and after a lot of casting around I noticed on some list or other the suggestion that Language support was not setup - and LO it wasn't. I had no problem then setting it up and doing so did indeed cure the problem. This therefore cannot be described as a serious inconvenience to me, beyond a day tearing hair. But if my experience is at all common it may cause a fair amount of general frustration.
