Release notes text added:

== oem-config fails to handle some languages properly ==

The OEM end-user configuration tool mishandles selection of languages
that do not use the ASCII or ISO-8859-1 character sets, and the end user
will end up with no localisation set after selecting these languages
([[https://launchpad.net/bugs/290580|bug 290580]]). The list of ''known-
good'' languages is as follows: Basque, Catalan, Danish, Dutch, English,
Finnish, French, Galician, German, Indonesian, Italian, Northern Sami,
Norwegian Bokmål, Norwegian Nynorsk, Portuguese, Portuguese (Brazil),
Spanish, Swedish, Tagalog.

For the meantime, OEMs affected by this problem may apply this
[[http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/oem-
config/trunk/revision/555|patch]] (the `scripts/tzsetup` part) to the
file `/usr/lib/oem-config/timezone/tzsetup` before running "Prepare for
shipping to end user". We expect to release an update for this in due
course, which will be installable via the normal packaging system at
that same stage.
