Why should 'speakup' be selected by default at all? I would expect 'standard' to be selected as the default by d-i. I noticed only after submitting this bugreport that speakup is a keyboard variant after you choose query - US American - standard (not USB). The options presented are: speakup, standard, US international (ISO-8859-1), US international (ISO-8859-15), with Latin1. I think it is great that Debian supports extensions for blind people, but I would not want them selected by default for my systems. If they are selected by default I would again have error messages if I compile my own kernel without speakup support. So please make 'standard' the default selection for d-i.
