Comment 6 for bug 358095

This bug is a manifestation of two issues: firstly that the selection of language packs for the images is limited (cf mobile.jaunty revno 1356), and secondly that livecd-rootfs does not include the contents of the mobile-live seed in the shipping image.

In the absence of included language packs, the installer attempts to install the selected language pack at the time of install. As these are not available in the image (either as part of the squashfs or in the pool), if the device being installed did not have a network connection at install time, the packages are marked for install, but not actually installed. When a package manager is first run on the installed device, it will attempt to install those packages marked for installation, leading to the symptoms described in the bug.
