Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
There is a notice in the installer warning users about the installation of third party software:
"${RELEASE} uses third-party software to display Flash, MP3 and other media, and to work with some wireless hardware. Some of this software is closed-source. The software is subject to the license terms included with the software's documentation."
Translations from this string are not loaded, despite them being included in the package (see attached screenshot). While running the installer in a virtual machine, I've noticed that the translated text is shown for a short period of time (less than a second), to be subsequently replaced by the English text.
So it seems translations are loaded, but at some point overwritten by the original English text.

[ Evan Dandrea ]
* Fix the installer window growing and shrinking when typing in the
boxes on the user setup page.
* Do not show the prepare page by means of hiding the language page
before the former is ready.
* Fix a crash in the KDE partitioning page when no partitions are
available for resizing (LP: #644407).
* Call setgroups() when raising and dropping privileges. Thanks Colin
Watson!
* Also tail syslog in the installer details pane, since that's where
the action is.
* Correctly use the plugin_translate hook in the KDE frontend
(LP: #645092).
* Update translations from Launchpad.
* Automatic update of included source packages: base-installer
1.107ubuntu2.
[ Jonathan Riddell ]
* In gui/qt/app.ui remove unnecessary margin, (LP: #628883)
* KDE UI, Change button next between 'install now' and 'next'
depending on partition mode, (LP: #628882)
