Nothing. It supports fr_CA. I'm not really sure about the KDE paper size thing but this definitely is not a d-i problem.
Given that this install report is a complete success report, I do as usual with successful install report=A0: I close the bug..:-)
This does not of course mean you weren't right to report. Knowing the installations are correct is important for the d-i team.
Many thanks for yourtime testing the Debian Installer and reporting your results. Have fun with your new Debian system!
/etc/papersize is not related to KDE, but to dpkg-reconfigure libpaper1 so affects all programs, like OOo under Gnome. Also, even if my installation was mainly successful, I was wondering if the problem of X defaulting to us instead of fr_CA was known. I didn't know about dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 until months after I installed debian for the first time, so it's not cool if you have to run that immediately.
