ARCHINSTALL EXPANDS LANGUAGE SUPPORT WITH NORWEGIAN BOKMÅL

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Linux · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

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.
