We need to go though the whole New Language Process as we did for "ug" with Gheyret Kenji Please notice however, that a new translation adds an extra size to the installer so we need some good rock solid rationale for adding a variant of an existing language. Also, variants have not been proven as working properly as of now : we for instance have a "sr@latin" variant for Serbian that is not activated yet because supporting it requires changes to localechooser that nobody did until now. (the main problem comes from the fact that localechooser assumes that the chosen language code and the chosen country can be concatenated : fr for language then FR as country, give "fr_FR".while this doesn't work for "sr@latin" combined with a country code such as "RS" as the locale should be "sr_RS@latin", not sr@latin_RS) signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Adding New Script Variants on Debian Installer
Dear Debian Developers/Maintainers, How can we have new language/script on debian installer? Is there any requirement? If there is, what is the requirement? Ubuntu uses Debian Installer and it has Arabic based Uyghur. We need Latin based Uyghur too. Thanks. Ubuntu Uyghur Translation Group PS: For information about Uyghur language and script, please refer to the following Wikipedia articles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uyghur_language http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uyghur_alphabet

Grub-pc grub-install doesn't write to 1st sector of partition
Hello, I guess I have the same issue as in #611463 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=611463 On squeeze with v 1.98+20100804-14+squeeze1 the following command doesn't write anything to the 1st sector of the partition. grub-install --force /dev/sda11 I tested it with grub-pc from testing (1.99-14) and it works fine. Are there any plans to fix grub-pc of squeeze in an upcoming squeeze update ? Or would it be better that I ask for a backport ?

Quoting Regis Boudin (re...@boudin.name): > Hi everyone ! > > That's it, after a month of testing on my main machine, I uploaded > cdebconf 0.159. Time for me to switch..:-) First glitch I had : I did setup DEBCONF_USE_CDEBCONF=1, then I ran "dpkg-reconfigure samba" and.I ended up with the "text" interface and not the "newt" one. Running "dpkg-reconfigure cdebconf" (which indeed defaulted to "newt" for the interface) fixed the problem. Other glitches will come later on (though I don't do much interactive use of debconf as my laptop is mostly updated with apt-cron). signature.asc Description: Digital signature
