Looks like it came from installer: Start-Date: 2016-09-22 12:20:12 Commandline: apt-get -o APT::Status-Fd=4 -o APT::Keep-Fds::=5 -o APT::Keep-Fds::=6 -q -y --no-remove install grub-common Install: gettext-base:amd64 (0.19.3-2, automatic), libpng12-0:amd64 (1.2.50-2+deb8u2, automatic), libfreetype6:amd64 (2.5.2-3+deb8u1, automatic), grub-common:amd64 (2.02~beta2-22+deb8u1), libasprintf0c2:amd64 (0.19.3-2, automatic), libfus e2:amd64 (2.9.3-15+deb8u2, automatic) End-Date: 2016-09-22 12:20:12 Start-Date: 2016-09-22 12:20:16 Commandline: apt-get -o APT::Status-Fd=4 -o APT::Keep-Fds::=5 -o APT::Keep-Fds::=6 -q -y --no-remove install grub-pc Install: grub2-common:amd64 (2.02~beta2-22+deb8u1, automatic), grub-pc-bin:amd64 (2.02~beta2-22+deb8u1, automatic), grub-pc:amd64 (2.02~beta2-22+deb8u1), ucf:amd64 (3.0030, automatic) End-Date: 2016-09-22 12:20:17 Start-Date: 2016-09-22 12:20:25 Commandline: apt-get -o APT::Status-Fd=4 -o APT::Keep-Fds::=5 -o APT::Keep-Fds::=6 -q -y --no-remove install brltty Install: libasound2-data:amd64 (1.0.28-1, automatic), libbluetooth3:amd64 (5.23-2+b1, automatic), libbrlapi0.6:amd64 (5.2~20141018-5, automatic), brltty:amd64 (5.2~20141018-5), libasound2:amd64 (1.0.28-1, automatic), libgpm2:amd64 (1.20.4-6.1+b2, automatic) End-Date: 2016-09-22 12:20:26 in what circumstances installer starts brltty ? My guess is that installer detected "braille" device (my usb<->1wire converter was plugged into that machine during install) on install and decided to install the package. So the problem should go away if detection is correct. IMO *if* braille device was detected but not used at all during install it it should ask if package should be installed (with no as default to not screw over automatic install). That way it would be no difference for someone using it but would allow whoever is installing it to catch any bugs like that. -- Mariusz Gronczewski (XANi) <[email protected]> GnuPG: 0xEA8ACE64
