ARCHINSTALL EXPANDS LANGUAGE SUPPORT WITH NORWEGIAN BOKMÅL

Archinstall landed Norwegian Bokmål translation with 375 strings fully localized, while the project tightens its linting chain across the stack.

The installer now supports Norwegian Bokmål [1], adding a complete translation of all 375 base strings with proper placeholder preservation and language registration in the selector. This follows a pattern of steady internationalization work across the project. Ukrainian translation also got a refresh [2] to cover new Plymouth bootloader strings and graphics driver labels, keeping pace with recent installer features. On the tooling front, ruff bumped to v0.15.20 [3] across both the main dependency and the pre-commit hook [4], tightening code quality checks in the pipeline. These dependency updates are routine but worth confirming locally before your next build.

Action items

→ Verify ruff v0.15.20 integrates cleanly with your archinstall setup archlinux/archinstall [plan]
→ Test Norwegian Bokmål installer if you support international deployments archlinux/archinstall [monitor]
