Title:
  Update manager uses the wrong language for package descriptions

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  The Update Manager uses the wrong language environment variable to set
  the language for package descriptions.

  Use case:
  Using the Language Support tool in Ubuntu Lucid Lynx I have set my interface language to "en_GB:en" and the number and currency formatting, and paper sizes to "nl_NL" (I live in the Netherlands).

  This seems to set these two variables:

  LANG=nl_NL.utf8
  LANGUAGE=en_GB:en

  Update Manager itself uses English for its GUI, but the packages
  listed have Dutch descriptions when available.
