Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
During an entirely en_US installation, while configuring the locale,
ubiquity downloads the following additional packages:
$ ls -l /target/var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14908790 2009-04-28 18:05
/target/var/cache/apt/archives/gimp-help-common_2.4.1-2_all.deb

/target/var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-l10n-common_1%3a3.1.1-4ubuntu1_all.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1921516 2009-10-12 09:15
/target/var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-l10n-en-gb_1%3a3.1.1-4ubuntu1_all.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9158336 2009-10-12 09:15
/target/var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-l10n-en-za_1%3a3.1.1-4ubuntu1_all.deb
Of those, openoffice.org-help-en-gb_1%3a3.1.1-4ubuntu1_all.deb,
openoffice.org-l10n-en-gb_1%3a3.1.1-4ubuntu1_all.deb, and openoffice
.org-l10n-en-za_1%3a3.1.1-4ubuntu1_all.deb are not likely to be useful
in an en_US install.
It was my understanding that english language installs didn't require
any additional language downloads.
