Both terms used, =E2=80=98locale location=E2=80=99 and =E2=80=98territory f= or this=20 language=E2=80=99, refer to the second part of your locale's name such as=20 fr_CA. There is no en_FR. It would not make sense to offer that=20 choice. AFAICS the word =E2=80=98territory=E2=80=99 is taken directly from section = 6.7 of=20 the relevant standard[0] and should not be replaced with something=20 =E2=80=98friendlier=E2=80=99 but inaccurate. Perhaps you could suggest another sentence to explain out what it=20 means (and what it doesn't). What would have avoided this=20 misunderstanding? Which other GNU/Linux distributions have you=20 installed without issue? And: what did you actually want to set? The only reason your OS=20 installer ever needs to know your physical location is IMO to set=20 the time zone, which is a separate step. Thanks!
