Subject: Bug#470259: cdebconf-gtk-udeb: Font size not reset when switching to English
Package: cdebconf-gtk-udeb
Version: 0.124
Severity: minor

For some languages the font size is increased in the graphical installer
after the language has been selected, and it should be changed back to the
default size when switching back to a language that does not need a larger
size.

For some reason the default font size is not restored if you switch back to
English, even though it is when you switch to e.g. Dutch. For Etch it also
worked for English.

Steps to reproduce:
- choose Dzongkha: country screen will use large font
- <go back> from country selection, select localechooser
- choose English: country screen will still be large font
- <go back> from country selection, select localechooser
- choose Dutch: country screen will be in default font size
- <go back> from country selection, select localechooser
- choose Dzongkha again: large font again
- <go back> from country selection, select localechooser
- choose Dutch: country screen will be in default font size

So, it looks as if only English is somehow broken. I've already ruled out a
bug in the gtk-set-font script.

The bug can also be reproduced with the "refactored" localechooser by
backing up from country selection directly to language selection.
