Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

As for the beta, the ubiquity installer does not provide translated language strings for several of the most important installer steps. Strings are missing and/or not updated from launchpad contributions, though most of the strings were updated over a week ago. This is a concern at least for "Norsk (Bokmål)" language, other languages not checked.

For the first installer step, only 2 out of 9 strings are displayed in correct language.

The slideshow is odd. From the source, it looks to me as though it should be up to date for nb already (although a general update for other languages wouldn't hurt). Investigating.

Great. I added two more screenshots, as the faulty strings affected other windows too - I don't know if you enabled specific strings or made a complete update.

Also, the translation web site claims that both "debian-installer" and "uiquity-debconf" have 'changed' translations. These updates were made a long time ago, and I just want to make sure that also these are included in the upcoming release. I would have expected that no "changed" translations were visible prior to the release.
