severity 273590 critical
thanks

I can definitely say that the appearance of double LANG (and LANGUAGE) 
entries in /etc/environment completely breaks Greek in 2nd stage 
installation (as pointed also in a recent mail in debian-boot list by 
Christian Perrier). This is definitely an RC bug as it renders the 
installer totally unusable in the Greek language. 

Actually, the bug is language agnostic, but other languages that need 
font setup use their own systems (like console-cyrillic and jfbterm) 
which do not really care for this bug. Greek, however, depends solely 
on console-tools to setup the console font and if that breaks, 
well...

Removing the double lines, corrects this problem, and the Ubuntu 
patches should be applied so that console-tools read only one pair, 
but still there is the problem of where do these extra entries come 
from. I'm looking into it myself right now...
