Right, but the installer does not install locales-all (right?). So by default, only the files for the configured locales will be copied. We could add a switch to apt-cdrom to copy all configured locales for d-i purposes, and then once we have translation files in /var/lib/apt/lists only recognize those languages and the ones configured via APT configuration. We don't even need a switch, we could just look at this list if no languages are explicitely configured for APT or translations found in /var/lib/apt/lists. This solves the problem with initial setup copying all translation files and should work for everyone. -- Julian Andres Klode - Debian Developer, Ubuntu Member See http://wiki.debian.org/JulianAndresKlode and http://jak-linux.org/. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
