Public bug reported: When user with russian locale launches ubuntu-release-upgrader, it calculates changes and prompts user to continue installation. This looks like:
Установка обновления может занять несколько часов (trans: installation could take a few hours). После завершения загрузки отменить установку будет нельзя (trans: after finishing download installation can't be aborted). Продолжить [дН] Подробности [п] (trans: Continue [...], Details [...]) Notice that confirmation keys are translated too. It could be a problem of translation, but in previous versions of ubuntu (9.10 -> 10.04) keys д/Н/п worked without any problem.
