Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubiquity

I was doing an installation from a Ubuntu Gutsy Alpha 5 CD by booting up the 
Live CD and choosing the Install icon.
I was using the German translation, and ubiquity-frontend-gtk.

When I wanted to abort this installation, it asked me if I really wanted
to do that. Translated back to English, it says essentially "Do you want
to abort the installation?", with two buttons in the dialog: "Abort" and
"Exit". Since the Gnome HIG discourages "Yes/No" buttons, developers
should use verbs for the action, and here, "Abort" would be a correct
verb to use. But of course, the "Abort" button aborts the abortion, but
not the installation ("Exit" does that).

The German translation uses "Abbrechen" and "Beenden".

Please use a different translation, or reword that dialog if the English
strings also have that problem.
