Okay, but in all these steps, what is actually done by localechooser and 
by countrychooser ? I read the thread (well, I must say I didn't read 
ALL the thread...) but I still can't figure out which is which and what 
it does. Also note that it's been a while I last installed a Debian, so...
Final question: is all that about choosing a language (for locale) or 
choosing a location (place) (for timezone or whatever else) ?
