Bug#673365: installation-report: dnet-common looks unnecessary for normal environment
Quoting Kenshi Muto (km...@debian.org): Of course all installations worked well on VirtualBox, but I noticed the installer (with choosing desktop on tasksel) asked dnet-common debconf configuration even debconf-level was high. Although I'm not sure what introduces dnet-common, setting DECnet seems unnecessary for modern environment. We could maybe climb back the dependency tree. Have you tried removing dnet-common and see what's removed? A quick look shows things related to ROAR audio. No idea what it could be. But, for sure, having a default Debian desktop install asking questions about DECNet node address is certainly not something we want. signature.asc Description: Digital signature
