We have something better�: debian-installer/language contains things like: en_BR:en_US:en_GB:en Or pt_BR:pt:en_GB:en How we set this value is a tricky combination of languagechooser and countrychooser.... It will always contain at least a valid locale which is supposed to be as close as possible to the user choices. For instance a fallback for Ukrainian locale (uk_UA) is a russian one (ru_UA)..... This is maybe not perfect and the 5th field in the languagelist file in languagechooser should be carefully chosen for every language....but we here have a good source for finding a good locale�: just cycle through all possible values, from left to right and use the first valid one....and fallback to C is none is valid of course...
