Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

Version: Ubuntu Natty Beta 2.

Steps to reproduce:
At the try/install screen, switch language to "Norwegian Bokmål".

Expected result:
I expect the installation to be translated to Norwegian Bokmål. The language is currently 100% translated (https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/ubiquity) and it has worked fine in the past, correctly translating the installation.

Actual result:
Only a few words, such as Forward, back and similar strings are translated. The rest of the installation is not translated.

I briefly checked other languages, and they changed the texts on the try out/install screen at least, so I assume they are working fine. The same issue may affect Norwegian Nynorsk as well, but I'm not familiar with how that language has worked earlier.

Done some more testing. The same issue occurs in Ubuntu Natty beta 1, but the installation is translated properly in Maverick final when choosing "Norwegian Bokmål". (Maverick also translates Norwegian nynorsk, so it's probably affected as well).

Looks like it regressed somewhere between the release of Maverick and Natty beta 1. Unfortunately I don't think I have the earlier alphas anymore, so I don't know if I'll be able to pinpoint it exactly.

ubiquity-debconf had two faulty strings:

51: «_Install Now[ action ]» was translated to «_Installer nå»
189: «1 partition will be deleted, use the <a href="">advanced partitioning tool</a> for more control» was translated to «%d partisjon slettes. Bruk <a href="">advanced partitioning tool</a> for bedre kontroll.»

Translation file is corrected and uploaded. The installation was however working normally with both Norwegian BM and NN with the current ISO. Thanks to whoever fixed the problem!

String 51 was correctly translated after all. No more errors found.

I tested with the final release of Natty, and it is indeed working as intended. Thanks to whoever fixed this. :)
