Well, euro-support serves two purposes: - provide documentation on how to enable euro-support. This documentation needs an important review since, in most cases, d-i will setup an UTF-8 lcaole and, consequently, there's no need to do anything to have the euro char. It is primarily oriented to help users switch from ISO-8859-1 to ISO-8859-15 for *old* users (those that do not use an UTF-8 locale). - help the user test if his system prints the euro character. It does not (in any way) change the user's system (like localization-config does automatically or user-es does through its 'castellanizar' script). So I guess it could be kept for etch (no harm in doing so), I might allocate some time to fix the first point above in time for the etch release. Regards Javier
