 With 2.8, many people can know make real use of the automatic update tool.

 Thing is, in the case of localized versions, the update message

   You can upgrade to version %s automatically or download the package and
 install it manually:

 ...is displayed for the English version hours before the release of the
 local version, and not everyone is aware that it is the English version
 rather than the localized one.

 While this is not an issue in the long term, it makes for a flood of
 messages on local support forums, with people asking why the translation
 is wrong or even gone. We can tell them to wait for the local version
 button to appear, but it'd be easier if such a message was displayed
 directly in the updating tool.
