Package: base-config Version: 2.23 Severity: important Tags: l10n, d-i Hi,
After successfully finishing the first stage installation, I entered to
base-config. Everthing was fine, i.e. termwrap set the correct console
font as indicated in languagechooser/languagelist (ter-916f/iso09 for
Turkish), no problems with the debconf messages -- they were all
displayed in Turkish. But at the end of base-config, console settings
were changed again, due to the following code in termwrap:
[...]
$@
case $ENCODING in
[...]
ISO-8859-9)
# Unload ISO-8859-9 charset mapping, by loading ISO-8859-1
# instead
try_load_charset "$ENCODING" iso01 lat0-sun16
When I retested it, I modified the termwrap code so as to immediately
exit after calling the base-config, that is:
[...]
$@
exit $?
case $ENCODING in
and I found the console as it should be. I can work on a patch for this
problem, but first I should figure out this behaviour. Why does it need
to unload the charset mapping at the end of termwrap? Is it something
related with the "base-config in first stage installation" facility?
Regards,
P.S. This problem exist in all latest netinst snapshots (e.g. 20040519 -
20040523).
