[Bug 1366267] [NEW] download during install from Live-CD

Public bug reported:

     I installed using a DVD burned from ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-
amd64.iso.

     There was a lot of downloading going on during the installation, in
spite of my having NOT checked "update during install".

     There should be a way to install just the system I've been using on
the Live-CD, with no checking for updates, let alone downloading
updates.

     Particularly annoying was when it seemed to be downloading every
language pack there is, so it could pick one and delete the rest.  Maybe
I don't understand what a language pack is, or why it felt the need to
download more than one -- maybe a different label on that phase would
make me resent it less while I'm waiting four to seven minutes for it to
download.
