Re: cdebconf 0.159

2012-03-17 Thread Christian PERRIER
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).

Grub-pc grub-install doesn't write to 1st sector of partition

2012-03-17 Thread fabienst
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 ?

Kind regards
Fabien

Adding New Script Variants on Debian Installer

2012-03-17 Thread Eagle Burkut
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

 brltty

Done after looking at the changes.

 partman-ext2r0

Done.  Note that the new source package appears to be full of .git
cruft.

 partman-nbd

Not done.  The files client.c, oef and opdr have all disappeared and a
chunk of code has changed in resolv.c, without any mention in the
changelog.

 pkgse

Did you mean pkgsel?

 linux-2.6

Nope.  It's plenty old enough, but FTBFS on s390*.  There's no way it
can migrate until that's fixed.

 win32-loader

Not done yet, pending confirmation from ftp-master that it's okay to do
so before the corresponding files in /tools/ have been updated.

Regards,

Adam

 I'd appreciate if you could go ahead and push the xz strategies patch

 compression blocks on this and should better not be delayed further.
 The other components are ready / will be patched as soon as an updated
 dpkg hits the archive.

Since Guillem announced that 1.16.2 should be uploaded to sid shortly, I
did not bother replying. It seems to take a bit longer than announced but
hopefully it's a matter of a few days at most now.

It's a matter of a few days for weeks already.  I don't hold my breath.  We'll
have an installer release without it, I guess.
