It's normal, all langpacks are installed on the live-cd. But it's not really designed to be updated as a liveusb. I think the best solution is to remove all langpacks when you do a liveusb, and only install the ones you want.

[Lubuntu-desktop] Language Packs
Hi, I know we've discussed this before, but for the life of me I cannot find the solution / bug-fix / work around Only problem with 11.04 liveusb is that it showed 300 updates available, and it looked like 200 of them were language packs. I was installing them all but eventually ran out of room on my 4gb usb stick. So now only updating chromium and flash (since main purpose is web browsing). Nearest I could find was https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icedtea-web/+bug/766559 but I'm sure that was not the problem :\ If someone would be kind enough to refresh my faulty memory :) Regards, Phill. -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/phillw ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I was installing them all but eventually ran out of room on my 4gb usb stick. So now only updating chromium and flash (since main purpose is web browsing). As far as I know, the only way to get this kind of issue is to install hundreds of language packs. Very few people do that, most of us do not speak *that* many languages! There are many packs on the CD, but by default we do not install all of them. The output of dpkg-query -W language-pack-\?\? might be interesting to know in working on this issue. If I am correct, the workaround is to not install (or uninstall!) all the language packs for languages you do not need :) More generally, if you do a lot of updates in a low-disk-space environment, doing sudo apt-get clean can free up significant disk space.
