Re: New aboot-installer package for alpha, translations needed

BTW, while fixing the french translations, I though about some
possible improvements to original english translations:
#. Description
#: ../templates:18
msgid "Installing the aboot boot loader"
msgstr "Installation du chargeur de démarrage aboot"
#. Description
#: ../templates:22
msgid "Installing the 'aboot' package."
msgstr "Installation du paquet d'aboot."
#. Description
#: ../templates:26
msgid "Determining aboot boot device."
msgstr "Recherche du périphérique d'amorce d'aboot."
And so on for for "....ing" strings.
All look like progress messages, so I would suggest changing them to
"Installing the 'aboot' package...'
und so weiter....
If you confirm me these are progress message, I can handle the
changes...and try to unfuzzy translations there also.
