Description Martin Kolman 2015-07-13 15:39:02 UTC 
Description of problem:
The Anaconda and Initial Setup text user interface (TUI) needs to be able to detect if the currently selected language can be correctly rendered with the Linux console. 

Upstream langtable (version >=0.0.34) has the list_scripts() functionality which can be used to perform this by the TUI.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.0.34

How reproducible:
always

Additional info:
Idea about using the list_scripts() functionality by Anaconda and Initial Setup TUI is to list scripts for the currently selected language and only use it if it is one of: 'Latn', 'Cyrl' or 'Grek'. If it is not one of those, the TUI will default to English to prevent displaying unreadable characters to the user.
