Such file shouldn't be that hard to maintain. Only drawback: there's still the possibility that the backup language itself is incomplete and then the installer falls back to English...:-) If I'm correct, there are only the following cases: Northern Sami falls back to Norwegian Bokmål, then Nynorsk, then Danish, then Swedish, then English... Bokmål falls back to Nynorsk, Danish, Swedish, English Nynorsk falls back to Bokmål, Danish, Swedish, English Wolof falls back to French then English Brazilian falls back to Portuguese, then English Portuguese falls back to brazilian, then English That means we would need to maintain translations of nb: in Sami and Nynorsk nn: in Sami and Bokmål sv: in Sami, Bokmål, Nynorsk da: in Sami, Bokmål, Nynorsk fr: in Wolof pt_BR: in Portuguese pt: in Brazilian Seems doable --
