Can't go back to "Choose your location" screen in installer

Build: Breezy Colony 3

Start installing Ubuntu, choose a language, then choose your location. In the
"Select a keyboard layout" screen, choose "Go Back". This should take you back
to the "Choose your location" screen, but it doesn't; it skips back to the
"Choose a language" screen, and choosing a language skips forward to "Select a
keyboard layout". It seems to be impossible to return to the "Choose your
location" screen at all.

I see this, Christian Perrier doesn't see it in Debian, but I don't see a nice
and quick fix for this in Ubuntu.

OK, this is approximately Debian bug #315929. Christian's fix works for me in
the situations in which I've tested it, so I'll upload it.

The keyboard chooser still behaves badly after a language change even with this
fix; it's very confused about the keyboard architecture after changing language.
This appears to be due to some rather broken i18n handling of
console-tools/archs in kbd-chooser. (Argh.) That's a separate bug, though ...

  * Backport from trunk (Christian Perrier, closes: Ubuntu #14670):
    - languagemap: always set LOCALE, FALLBACKLOCALE, LANGUAGE, COUNTRY
                   even when they were already set before calling the script
      Closes: #315929

Subject: localechooser: Logic error in the locales selection screen generation when
 language is changed during the install

Package: localechooser
Severity: normal

The way to reproduce the bug is roughly the following:

-Select a language such as French
-Select country (the default is OK, ie France)
-In the keyboard selection screen that follows, choose "Get back" to go back
 to main menu
-Select "Choose language" again
-Choose Albanian
-In the country selections creen, choose Albania (Sqiperia, roughly..:-))
-The the locales selection screen will still propose the French locales, not
the Albanian ones

It seems that this bug is due to some variables being set only when
they are empty in the languagemap script.

(languagemap is run to fill several locales from the languagelist file
after setting LANGNAME to the English language name)

Always setting these variables solves the reported problem and is very
likely to fix a similar problem in Ubuntu.
