Package: debian-installer
Version: 20120828
Severity: minor

Hi!

(sorry if reported against the wrong package or if already known)

While installing wheezy on a new system using
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/current/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso
(downloaded yesterday at Set 20 17:44) and selecting Brazilian
Portuguese as the language, I see that after selecting the mirror it
downloads a lot of translations not related with the selected language
(Translation-{pt_BR,pt,en} are fine (for me, at least), but I don't see why it
has to download Translation-de (and others), for example).

Shouln't apt's Acquire::Languages be configured to only use, at most,
en + selected language?

Thank you!

Best regards,
Nelson

My wheezy installation logs suggest this was fixed in time for wheezy:
| May  3 00:15:53 in-target: Get:4 http://ftp.fr.debian.org wheezy/main Translation-en [3,852 kB]
| May  3 00:15:59 in-target: Get:2 http://ftp.fr.debian.org wheezy/main Translation-en/DiffIndex [7,876 B]

I believe this was fixed in apt:
| apt (0.9.7.5) unstable; urgency=low
| […]
|   * apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
|     - copy only configured translation files from a CD-ROM and not all
|       available translation files preventing new installs with d-i from
|       being initialized with all translations (Closes: #678227)
| […]

Closing Tollef's and Nelson's bug reports.
