Bug Description

During installation all indicators are shown in English even if a different language is chosen in Ubiquity. I guess this is because translations are in the language packs and those aren't installed yet when installation starts. Maybe translations for those items that are accessible during installation could be put on the Live-CD directly and change to whatever language is selected in Ubiquity?

IIRC policy for this is that things essential for running the installer should be localized by default, and nothing else. I don't think indicators fit this description.
