Bug Description

when I run sudo `apt-get install PACKAGE`, the apt when asking the ~ downloading this much do you want to proceed type of question ending with "[Y/n]" choice, is localized to ask "[I/n]" in Hungarian, because Yes means Igen and No means Nem in Hungarian. However, after typing `i` it said Aborted in Hungarian ie. it stopped. I've tried it again with `y` now and then it proceeded. I think localizing the question is only meaningful if the choices are localized also. In case gettext is not sufficient for this which I assume to be the case, may I suggest a solution like [Y - igen / N - nem] like localization.

The expected behaviour is that standard input interpretation matches the standard output choice description.
