Comments/Problems:
I don't want to get any localization on my PC, so I skipped the
"Choose language", "Choose country", and "Select keyboard"
options. choose-mirror listed just some abbr. contry names
AR
AT
AU
BE
:
instead of human readable names. The other d-i modules I
tried were OK.
The generated /etc/environment was
LANG=""
LANGUAGE=""
instead of the expected empty file.
base-config asked for the settings for /etc/apt/sources.list
again, which is pretty painfull for amd64. The line specified
in d-i was commented out.

Harri

Well, that is choose-mirror design. There is no way for it to know
which language you use as you explicitely asked for no language.
Just choose English is you don't want any localisation at all.
The bug you already reported about locales problem when doing so is
being worked on.
There is currently no support for no licalisation at all. However,
choosing English then US will give you what is the closest behaviour
for this (the locales package is not installed in that case).
PS : I will refain on commenting about admins don't caring about
localisation and people never trying the installer in their mother
tongue...:-).
