Public bug reported:

When installing kubuntu using the Greek language, in the Timezone selection 
screen,
there is a tooltip that shows the time and then supposedly "am" or "pm" but in 
Greek
case it shows gibberish instead of "πμ" or "μμ".

The reason is a hidden python str -> QString conversion since QString is 
latin-1 by
default.

One way to solve this problem is to add:

QtCore.QTextCodec.setCodecForCStrings(QtCore.QText.CodecForName("utf8"))

after

class TimezoneMap(QtGui.QWidget):

at

ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/Timezone.py

I would guess that this also affects other languages with non-latin alphabets
(e.g., Russian). Please fix.
