New issue 20077 by teil-neh...@gmx.net: Website/Chrome Installer uses  
unwanted language
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=20077

[Language]
English/German

[Version number]
Current as of 2009-08-23

[OS details]
Windows 7 x64

[Where is the poor translation?]
This issue has several faces for me. They all begin with my desire to
install Chrome. I have 2 use-cases A: using Firefox and B: using IE.

Let me first note that I use an US English version of Windows, my
localization settings for time and date in Windows are slightly adjusted
and I use a German keyboard. Additionally I live in Germany.
Now due to this mix I get very unpleasing results in both use-cases.

A: I go to google.com/chrome. The site is in German. I switch the language
to English. Now if I click download everything is in English and I am
happy. But if I want the beta version instead I get the German EULA, a
German installer and a German installation.

B: I go to google.com/chrome. The site is in English. Everything will be
English as well unless I want the beta version. In this case I get a German
EULA again, a German installer and German installation.

And to clarify this, I always want an English version and I don't
understand why I get a German website in Firefox. Simply giving me the
option to pick a language prior to installation would be most desirable.
