A better way to communicate such thoughts would be to file an installation report [1]. The debian-cd list does not really cover the installer itself. > 1. As I am German, I chose "German".

Translation issues are best discussed directly with the translators on the debian-l10n-german mailing list [2]. > 2.

The installer will load localization packages for KDE *if* they are available. Start aptitude and under tasks/localization look for the "German KDE desktop" task. That task should get selected and installed automatically. > All at all I liked the new install process, it is really fast, easy to > handle and seem to work well.
