I was using the following .iso [Last modified: 22-Jan-2006 09:41]
http://people.debian.org/~fjp/d-i/gtk-miniiso/daily/i386/mini.iso

The following screenshot was taken by using MuktiNarrow font.

FYI, there was a bug Missing Bengali fonts,

 Is Bengali font still missing?

We have some problems with the conflicting ranges of different fonts.
The fonts are there, they are not chosen correctly.

 The following screenshot was taken by using MuktiNarrow font.
 http://www.webalice.it/zinosat/shots/bn_mukti1.jpg

That was an experimental image that was custom made by Davide Viti, AFAIK.

I am currently working on this after a break since the 22nd as  was
missing my test machine. I will start again working this week on this
issue.

 Hmm this could be related to either the installed fonts on the system
 when the build was
 done its changed quite a bit lately. Also I recall we are subsetting
 the fonts to remove overlapping unicode sequences so that would result
 potentially in a small error over some unicode range i.e it crashs
 with a particular char sequence.
 In either case you should see similar bug reports for other languages over 
 time.
 Other then that I don't see language specific  bugs happening unless
 its triggering something inside pango itself.

Actually i have seen this type of behaviour for all languages that
used Devangari, but for some reason (probably wrong syntax in BTS
handling) I didn't changed the title of the bug. I suspect that there
is a breakage in the lohit fonts because fontforge complained that it
could not open the font when I tried to strip either lohit_pa or
lohit_be (I think) on the plane back home.

Maybe someone could try to test with lohit fonts and see if is reproducible?

Last night I tried to reproduce the bug with the latest mini.iso [1];
I tried both with bengali and hindi but g-i never crashed. During the
meeting I know you've done some tests using an image built with the
gtk+2.8.10 libraries: could this be the case?

My tests were run both with qemu and with a spare machine I have at 
home

regards,
Davide

i have to admit that the mini ISO with GTKDFB 2.8.10 used to crash a lot 
on the desktop PCs we had as test machines at extremadura, but later at 
home i was no longer able to reproduce the crash.

AFAIK, Frans said that the image that he gave me then was in fact
unstable image, but with the console switching bug fixed.Was the image
using 2.8.10? I think not, as the arabic scipts are written from left
to right [1] in the snapshots I took. Frans? Do you remember what you
did for the image I used?

I cannot reproduce this with the latest mini.iso, nor with the 
businesscard image I built in Extremadura.

And it also does not crash with my babelbox setup (of course, this
setup never displays prompting screens to the user).

2006-01-21 Thread Eddy Petrişor
Package: debian-installer
Tags: d-i
Severity: normal

The graphical installer crashes as said in the subject.

Steps to reproduce:
- select bengali as a language, press next
- select any of the countries listed (three of them, currently), press next

The installer will crash and get back into the main menu, but in English.
