Bug Description

system booted with systemd-sysv and using 'english' as default language.

while upgrading aptitude on that vivid i386 system, i've got these warnings inside the synaptic's dialog box:

Looks like simple info, but maybe should be silenced by default as those languages are not installed (user choice)
