I suspect some nasty thing related to Arabic display in these conditions but I have no idea how to track this down. This sounds similar to the also unexplained #256405. (Arabic hanging on countrychooser) I will try to narrow down this to either the short country list template or the

Whilst I was testing this, I also noticed that the FALLBACKLOCALE appears not to be set inside countrychooser's postinst script, but to somehow inherit it's value from languagechooser. There is a line 'fallbacklocalecode=debian-installer/fallbacklocale', but a db_get is never performed.

Looks like the problem is coming from diacritics (harakat). I don't see stand-alone harakat in your first attachment. Also, the only thing that is common between the country names mentioned and the po file you have attached, it seems, is that they include the 'shadda' diacritic. Others,
