This is done automatically by d-i (tasksel). It installs appropriate language tasks based on the language you select on the first screen of the installer. There are usually two localization tasks per language - one for standard install (installs basic localization packages) and the other for desktop install (installs l10n files for iceweasel...). > - preseed the user's dictionaries based on the configured locale (through > dictionaries-common) I'm not sure about this one, but usually the language task (see above) installs appropriate dictionaries and dictionaries-common do not ask further questions (at least this is the case for Czech). > - presetting the user's keymap in X (now users have to answer the > questions, when X gets installed) Yes, this is a regression. *Some* of the settings are now included in the xorg postinst script. > - configuring the default Desktop environment based on system's locale > (GDM's /etc/default/gdm, KDM's kdmrc, KDE's system.kdeglobals) Both GDM and KDM should now respect default system environment. > - configuring some browsers with the system's default locale (lynx, links, > and mozilla) > - it seems mozilla is not an issue here since iceweasel will uses the LANG > environment to set its locale Not sure, kazehakse just works and w3m does not have Czech localization :-) -- Miroslav Kure -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
