Bug#918863: reboot returns to Windows 10 on Lenovo X1

2019-01-09 Thread Tom Brown
Package: win32-loader
Version: 0.8.3+deb9u1 +net

I have a new Lenovo X1 6th Gen running stock Windows 10. It has one
internal disk and 16GB Ram. The first thing I did with it was download and
run win32-loader. I didn't notice any errors, read the notice about
rebooting, waited eagerly for the installer to appear and instead rebooting
went right back to windows. I tried again selecting the text installation.
I tried rebooting using the windows start menu instead of letting win32-loader
do it. No luck. Here are the details copied from Debian-Installer loader:

Bug#310911: aspell: meaning of -l changed from 0.50 with no warning

2005-05-26 Thread Tom Brown
Package: aspell
Version: 0.60.2+20050121-2
Severity: minor

Between CVS r1.74 and r1.75 of prog/aspell.cpp the meaning of -l changed
from list to --lang. This change broke a script I was using when I upgraded
from aspell 0.50* to aspell6. Debugging the problem took a while because 
I saw 'You must specify a parameter for -l' and added a --lang
parameter to -l. 

I think changing the meaning of a parameter to something totally
different should have at least been mentioned in changelog.Debian.gz or
changelog.gz but the only documentation I can find for the change is
bug #301026.

I've attached a patch which outputs a more helpful error if one uses -l
without a parameter.

In handsight I should have seen and been clued in by a 'You must specify
an action' message from aspell but I did not see it.
