Package: debian-installer Severity: normal Tags: l10n d-i Hello d-i, et al
I live in Denmark, but almost always set up servers in english, to make collaboration easier. This means the en_DK.utf-8 locale is my preferred choice. However, I can no longer (I believe it broke in jessie, perhaps before) select it in the installer. I select "English", then "Europe" then "Copenhagen", and I am told that there is no locale available for my combination of choices. This is, of course, wrong. I then have to either fix up the system later, go through expert install, or increase debconf priority (a trick I just learned today). Why the bug happens, I'm not quite sure, but I have a suspicion. Denmark is one of the few countries in the world, where the language and country codes do not align (language: "da", country: "dk"). Perhaps the installer is checking the wrong one of these? Let me know how I can help! -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.7.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
