Actually, it's not as obvious a bug as I for some reason thought. Just preseed pkgsel/install-language-support=false (which server installs do do now, so bug 67960 is more relevant, being about the netboot case), or answer no to the "Download language support?" question.
We've had this discussion before. :-) I'd like to make pkgsel smarter about this to simplify the required preseeding, but I think preserving certain desirable UI properties (like avoiding asking questions in the middle of long download and install processes) will require moving the language pack/support logic into tasksel, which will take a reasonable amount of effort. ** Changed in: pkgsel (Ubuntu) Target: later => None -- server expert install on ubuntu-6.06-beta2-install-i386.iso downgrades to desktop install https://launchpad.net/bugs/42915 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
