Hey Gunnar,
After reorganizing the seeds for ubuntu desktop and see which strategy
we are going to take for the new installer (negative layered langpacks,
I can expand on this a little bit later), I think we have a robust story
to avoid the unsync we have between language-selector and the

Yeah, sorry that we had different terms for the same things :) Ok, I

When you are telling that you select French, or English, and so, all
dialects should be installed for them, why do we have that separation in

I think we need to distinguish between what's installed and what the
language-options script outputs.
Installing a language means that a set of language pack packages are
installed. (Let's disregard the language support packages for now.)
So when installing French, the French langpacks are instal
I think we should answer some questions first in term of fundamentals.

Yes, if you do a British install, the installer keeps the en_US language
