Bug#384067: the average user can't tell the difference between "English" and "C"
Package: localechooser
Severity: normal
AFAIK, the "C" option is only useful for debugging. The average English user
can't tell the difference between selecting "English" and selecting "C". I
think it can be confusing. Could you make "C" disappear for a priority < high ?
(perhaps the easiest way to do this is add a previous question asking wether
user wants any localization at all).
This wasn't much of a problem with console installs, because "C" doesn't
appear in the default screen (you have to scroll up), but in GUI installs, "C"
is one of the most prominent options.
