Bug#502240: cdebconf: should not drop fall-back languages



Quoting Frans Pop (elendil@planet.nl):
> Package: cdebconf
> Version: 0.117
> Severity: important
> 
> When localechooser sets debconf/language to a set of languages (preferred 
> + fall-back languages, e.g. se_NO:nb_NO:nb:no_NO:no:nn_NO:nn:da:sv:en for 
> Northern Sami), cdebconf should ensure that *all* relevant translations 
> are kept when translations are dropped with DEBCONF_DROP_TRANSLATIONS 
> set.
> 
> If that is not done users for languages for which translations are 
> incomplete, but which do have good fall-backs set will not get the best 
> possible language displayed for any installation step after anna.

"Nice" catch
