Hi. I was sort of annoyed by nano not working in debian-installer. The result is the attached patch, which changes this. As I'm just a random user of nano in debian-installer initrd, you probably want to wait what someone of the debian-installer team has to say about this. Especially, I don't know about the hardcoded dependency on libc6 and whether bug #182042 obsoletes this bug.
Cheers Thomas

+Section: debian-installer
+Priority: optional
+Architecture: any
+Depends: libc6-udeb
+Description: S-Lang library with utf8 support
+ This is a udeb, or a microdeb, of the S-Lang library with wide charater
+ support. As such it is the installer counterpart of slang1a-utf8.
+ You only need this package to support applications needing S-Lang during
+ the Debian installation process time and probably don't need to select it
+ manually for installation.
