Title:
  Translated apt-get waiting for untranslated response

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:
  1) set the LANGUAGE environment variable to a language other then English (e.g. fr)
  2) start sudo apt-get install somepackage
  3) when apt-get is asking for a question (Y/n) both the question and the options are translated, e.g "Y/n" options translated in french as "O/n"
  4) press the translated shortcut character for Yes (O in french)
  Expected result: installation proceeds
  What happens: Installation is canceled, as the prompt accepts only Y as an affirmative answer, any other character cancels the installation.
