Hmmm, all xargs related problems seem to be fixed in the meanwhile. All packages mentioned in that section are installed, exept for mozilla which is in state building on kiivi. I made a note in the wiki and the xargs section could be removed as soon as mozilla is installed as well, I think. Maybe some bugs needs to get closed, too. Some packages under Bugs are already installed, too, and maybe should be removed from the "pkgs" list, whereas gconftool-2 still hangs. > We're *still* unreleasable after months and months of trying to avoid > it, and I'm afraid we've currently reached a state where it's unlikely > to make it for etch unless some miracle happens *soon*. http://ftp-master.debian.org/~jeroen/d-i.out shows some needed udebs, mainly from klibc, that aren't uptodate. I don't know if those udebs from wireless-tools are of any use for m68k at all during installation time, especially because some subarchs will be dropped for etch m68k.
