Bug#214935: cdebconf-newt-udeb: OK button misleading in certain select questions



Package: cdebconf-newt-udeb
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i

I don't know if it is a problem with the german translation "Weiter" for
the OK button, but since two of my (german) friends ran into this usability
issue I believe it is worth reporting.

In partitioner and partconf you have a select question generating some
kind of menu, together with a "Finish" entry. However it turned out that
people believed that the "Weiter" button would have the meaning of the
Finish button. They selected "Weiter" but the select question was still
pointing at some other entry than "Finish" and they were confused about
the result.

I'd propose to drop the "Ok" button entirely in select questions,
because it makes no sense having it there anyway.

Regards,
Sebastian
