Let’s check the client side:
1. User opens Software Center and selects Language Pack that plans to install. Click the “Installeren” button (I use Russian OS distributive and install EN-GB language pack);
2. Installation took about 10-20 minutes. After that time button is greyed out, reboot the PC and check;
3. Change language, save, and reenter;
P. S. I know, this is not an ideal solution, but it works perfectly for me.
