Binary package hint: ubuntu-express
On the "please choose a login etc" page, when one does two or more mistakes and tries to go to next screen, error messages are display next to the field where error occured. But when one of these errors is fixed while other errors aren't, the message doesn't disappear for the field where there's no error anymore.
How to reproduce :
put "Hello world!" in the login field
put "Hello world!" in the computer name field
Click next. Errors are displayed for both fields.
Change the login to "login" but keep the computer name intact.
Click next.
The error next to the login field is still displayed even if "login" is a correct login name.
The error message should have gone away and the user should see only the error next to the computer name field.
This is really confusing for the user, because he thinks that the error is still there and don't know what to do.
