Package: debootstrap
Version: 0.1.16.1
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
I would like to see the attached patch included into debootstrap. The
idea is: if you set a environment variable, it will install the locales
package (and depending debconf package).
My plan is: the i18n enabled boot floppies call debootstrap with this
environment, so locales are installed with the simplest configuration.
Then we preset it's debconf settings to generate localisation files for
the currently used locales (on boot floppies) and set this locale as
default.
After the installation, when base-config will (as first) first force the
reconfiguration of debconf, then ask whether the user wishes to change
the localisation settings and reconfigure locales pacakge.
Another thing in this patch is pppoeconf. This could be enabled in
base-config as alternative to pppconfig, since it configures DSL
connection (what pppconfig does not) and is much simpler to use. And it
has only 15kB size.
Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.
