Bug#480472: Strange title when selecting kernels (Configuring locales)

I couldn't find where this came from, but it would be nice if someone could fix this. Thanks. Looks like a cdebconf bug. Configuring locales is a progress bar message, set with PROGRESS INFO. base-installer does not modify the title. I guess the newt frontend is somehow confusing progress bar info with dialog titles. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature
