I've made a few small adjustments to the language menu displayed at CD
boot time. This is technically a UI freeze break, so I wanted to notify
you so that screenshots can be updated. (It won't be a disaster if they
aren't, as the menu is still used in the same way.)
I think this change is justified, as the automatic pop-up of the
language menu was causing a certain amount of confusion, and this makes
it look more deliberate.
Here's the changelog:
gfxboot-theme-ubuntu (0.5.17) hardy; urgency=low
* Add a header to the language and keymap menus; this seems to make it
feel like less of an accident when the language menu is displayed
automatically on startup.
* Don't display "Press F4 to select alternative start-up and installation
modes" until the initial language menu has been dismissed (LP: #197260).
* Update sizes of menu items before adjusting the menu to avoid screen
width overflow (LP: #44950).
