Title:
  Skippable online update portion of install is poorly labelled

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  During the install, Ubiquity has a section where it looks for online
  updates. There is a [skip] button present on the Ubiquity interface
  during this portion. However, the description of what Ubiquity is
  going at the time does not make it clear at all. It talks about
  "Configuring apt" and jumps through a complicated sequence of steps,
  all the while leaving the [skip] button on the interface.

  It would be preferable to say only "Looking for online updates"
  through this process. That makes it clear what it's doing, and why it
  can be skipped (it's clear that skipping that step means you won't get
  an updated version). The detail provided is currently excessive. It
  would also be acceptable to update the message to describe broad
  chunks of the online update, like "Looking for updates to Ubuntu
  online...", "Downloading updates to Ubuntu...", and "Installing
  updates...".
