--- Begin Message ---Package: debian-installer Severity: serious Justification: graphical installer regression Hi, Ever since we switched from linux 4.15 to 4.16, the graphical installer gets a black screen. Comparing Xorg logs, everything is exactly the same except for the kernel version and timestamps. syslog has extra lines about random stuff: May 12 02:25:01 init: starting pid 169, tty '': '/sbin/reopen-console /sbin/debian-installer' May 12 02:25:01 init: starting pid 172, tty '/dev/tty4': '/usr/bin/tail -f /var/log/syslog' May 12 02:25:02 init: process '/sbin/reopen-console /sbin/debian-installer' (pid 169) exited.

I think I've seen reports on #debian-kernel about boot stuff like plymouth/cryptsetup having issues gathering entropy at the early stages of the boot sequence, but I'm not sure that's a regression in the kernel, and/or something that should be dealt with from within cdebconf. That's why I'm filing this bug report for the time being, feel free to mention actual bug reports on the kernel side, and to suggest ways to go from here (I haven't followed that quite closely). I've X-D-Cc'd debian-kernel@ as their input is more than welcome. Interestingly, the text installer is working just fine so I guess it's something frontend-specific (some X11 fun?), but I won't dig into that right away.

[ Cyril Brulebois ] * Bump Linux kernel ABI from 4.13.0-1 to 4.16.0-2 * Replace c_rehash with openssl rehash (Closes: #895074). That should only affect builds with SSL_CERTS enabled; regular HTTPS support comes from ca-certificates anyway. * Update Vcs-{Browser,Git} to point to salsa (alioth's replacement). * Set Acquire::Languages to none since translations aren't needed. * Avoid warnings regarding missing /etc/apt/{apt.conf.d,preferences.d} by setting their respective apt config variables to /dev/null. * Duplicate Apt::Architecture into Apt::Architectures because of course apt has two options, the latter getting foreign architectures if not specified, even if the former is. * Run fc-cache when /etc/fonts or /usr/share/fonts exist, to avoid having to generate UUIDs at runtime, which can be hard because of missing entropy (Closes: #898468). * Add fontconfig to Build-Depends accordingly. . [ Paul Tagliamonte ] * Add support for the NanoPiNeo . [ Aurelien Jarno ] * Drop the build-depends on libnewt0.52, the library now provides an udeb. . [ Vagrant Cascadian ] * [arm64] Generate u-boot media for pine64_plus: - Add Build-Depends on u-boot-sunxi, atf-allwinner, u-boot-tools and device-tree-compiler. - Add atf-allwinner to Built-Using. * [armhf] netboot: Enable grub-efi mini.iso. . [ John Paul Adrian Glaubitz ] * hppa: Use compressed kernel image by default. * sparc64: Use xz compression for initrd during netboot image build. . [ Paul Wise ] * Switch get-packages from setting apt-get options through the command line to writing a configuration file referred to by APT_CONFIG. The latter should ensure a stricter separation from the system config. . [ Samuel Thibault ] * Do not create /dev/console and /dev/null on hurd-any, they are initialized at runtime. . [ Vagrant Cascadian ] * [armhf] Add support for Cubietruck_plus.
