Victor: I'm not seeing this on today's quantal alternate installation, which I did as instructed in simplified Chinese. Screenshot attached. I also tried on my other quantal installation, switching to Chinese.

So this does not happen for you on a normal Quantal install?

lets just close it then. The issue may as well have appeared due to missing language packs, or some other dep which are installed fine on the desktop cd.
