If it didnt ask for it, Then it' thinks it can write directly to the  
servers files without going via FTP, which in most cases should be

Try opening /wp-content/upgrade/core/ and see if the files have been  
unpacked, does /wp-content/wordpress-latest.zip exist?

Sounds like the same file.. I'm not sure of the localised version  
upgrades, I see no reason why it shouldn't've worked..
