Bug Description
Binary package hint: netcfg
in edubuntu we configure a second static interface for the thin client network. getting the netcfg screen before that, asking "which is your primary interface" confuses many users. it would be nice if the wording could be changed to "please select your outbound interface" to make clearer which interface the user actually selects there.

Still a real issue, although it's in the general category of things that need to be brought up upstream in order to avoid breaking translations.

(The version of Ubuntu in use has no possible relevance to this bug.)
