--- Comment #6 from Christian Lohmaier <[email protected]> --- modifying the download as it happens is a no-go. Virus scanners would go nuts, you could not provide checksums/verification, digital signatures would be invalidated. Listing languages to pick will also present the user with an English "greeting"/instructions to pick a language, so only helps partially, as a "shortcut" to the customized installation. So it could just tell to pick "custom install" and select the language(s) to install" right away without /that/ much of a difference (IMHO). Ordering/romanization/labels of languages differ. So providing a list to pick from in effect forces to pick from English terms for the languages, even if started in a locale where auto-selecting the language of the installer would work. A localized dummy-installer (i.e. single-language, the one that was selected on the dl-page) that in turn calls the actual installer with some magic to select the language also isn't that nice, as it is an additional download or a "web installer" like thing that would need to download the real installer. This makes installing to multiple systems more complicated. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
