Public bug reported:
After booting Ubuntu Desktop installer, if you press F2 to select
another language for the installer, the text for Persian language is
displayed entirely wrong (see the attached screenshot). This is most
probably since the bootloader (maybe ISOLINUX?) could not show bidi-rtl-
text properly. Other bidi-rtl languages avoided this issue simply by
showing the language name in Latin alphabet at this stage (e.g. Arabic).
Persian speaking users would either miss that option, or will avoid
selecting it since they assume that the entire Persian translations
would be broken. I suggest that string to be changed to `Persian` or
`Farsi` for the time.
