[Bug 694328] [NEW] Third-party software option during installation is unfortunately worded

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Binary package hint: ubiquity

The para before the third party option is very misleading and confusing.

It mentions "software to display Flash" , "other media"(?) , "wireless hardware" ..
and then later the install option is "Install *this* third-party software" which *only* references the Fluendo MP3 plugin. why not just mention the name?
Why are we referencing the other media,wireless options when we dont install those?
And reference to wireless might be unnecessary if the desktop does not have any wireless cards.

It's better to reword para appropriately to just mention an intro about third-party and closed source nature of those packages.
And reword the option
[ ] "Install Fluendo MP3 plugin, a third-party software"
     "includes MPEG .... Thomson"
