This is intentional behavior. It means (for applications which use
gettext for choosing the display language) that a string which lacks a
pt_PT translation is displayed using the pt_BR translation instead.

In other words, the installer 'guesses' that this is what most European
Portuguese users prefer. For Brazilian Portuguese users, the installer
sets LANGUAGE to:

LANGUAGE=pt_BR:pt:en

Isn't that a reasonable way to deal with it?

And, as I mentioned in comment #2, you can change it using Language
Support, if you want.

** Changed in: language-selector (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
