I've updated the translations for this from Launchpad, but unfortunately
they need some retranslation work as the source text changed recently
and a technical problem meant that the .pot file wasn't updated. You
should get the opportunity to retranslate this in Launchpad the next
time ubiquity is uploaded.

The installer doesn't use language packs, so even if you've translated
things in Launchpad it needs us to go and download them and incorporate
the new strings into the source packages. Unfortunately this process is
not yet automatic so don't be too surprised by random delays.

The "Select your location" string is apparently not translated in
Launchpad; nor is "Zone".

Could you please get "Quit", "Back", and "Forward" translated properly
in *upstream* GTK+? That's the quickest way to get those translated in
the installer. As of GTK+ 2.17.7 they don't appear to be translated
there.

"Erase and use the entire disk" is not translated in Launchpad.

I think I've committed fixes for everything else. You should see them by
Alpha 5.

(Also, note that some of the translation files will be moving from
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/debian-installer/+pots/debian-installer
to
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/ubiquity/+pots/debconf
in the near future. We still have a bit of administrative stuff to do to
make this all work properly.)

This isn't an installer problem - there doesn't appear to be any package
containing Asturian localisation for Firefox. If something exists for
this upstream, then you'd be best off talking to the Mozilla team to get
it packaged.

Not a problem.
