Well, the checkbox solution seems much better, and it should also be checked on by default, so that an unexperienced user will get upgrades and languages without worrying. There should be a "more info" button that explains the situation to the user, and also tells if the required language packs for the currently selected language will require network connection. Perhaps there should be two checkboxes, one to download language packs, enabled automatically if the language requires download, and one to allow the system to automatically apt-get update when installed?
