Thanks a lot, this looks very interesting. I do not speak norwegian, but from what I think is happening, seems that installation is done in two different apt runs, in the first one aspell dicts and dictionaries-common are installed and fully configured with no ispell dictionaries and wordlists present and is in a second run where ispell dictionaries and wordlists are installed, but all the language selection stuff is already done. This is the problem, dictionaries-common and ispell dictionaries/wordlists must be installed in the same apt run for things to work properly.. IIRC, this is not the way debian-installer currently works, of I would have been flooded with related bug reports. One curiosity, which are values for dictionaries-common/default-ispell and dictionaries-common/default-wordlist. I guess that first is set to manual (second should be set to Bokmal after the debconf question) instead of being set to an actual dictionary. Also I see that you install 13 ispell dictionaries, not sure if that is what you want, and seems that some ancient localization stuff (localization-config?) is flying around. Please confirm if this is what is happening. Thanks again for the feedback.

This seems done in an initial apt run, without any wordlist or ispell dictionary in the installation list for that run. That way, dictionaries-common has no possibility of knowing through the debconf information which ispell dictionaries or wordlists are to be installed. Furthermore, ispell value seems to have been preseeded some way (Is ancient localization-config used?). > Jan 29 21:16:45 in-target: Setter opp dictionaries-common (1.4.0) ... > Jan 29 21:16:45 in-target: dictionaries-common: (re)configuring ...

Still no ispell dictionaries or wordlists installed > Jan 29 21:16:45 in-target: update-default-ispell: No ispell elements > installed. Manual forced No ispell dictionaries installed, set to manual mode. Now another apt pre-configuration run starts, this time with all wordlists and ispell dictionaries, in a separate run from that where dictionaries-common was installed and configured.. Everything is now shown properly, but since value set for wordlists is empty, and there is no match for it priority is set to critical and question asked. I guess there was no question for ispell dictionaries because there was a value for it, however was set to manual because no ispell dictionary was still present. That is surely not what you want. For wordlists, proposed value is Bokmaal because it goes first alphabetically, but that is just luck. If there were no value for ispell dictionary first entry "american (American English)" would have been selected. > .. 22:07:17 in-target: Forhåndsoppsetter pakker ... > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: ** dc_debconf_select: ispell, medium, > dictionaries-common/default-ispell > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: new choices:[american (American English), > bokmål (Bokmal Norwegian), british (British English), castellano8 (Spanish 8 > bit), catala8 (Catalan 8 bits), danish (Den Store Danske Ordliste), deutsch > (New German -tex mode-), > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: old choices:[] > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: -------- [dico_get_all_choices] start -------- > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: * Packages with languages: iamerican, ibrazilian, > ibritish, icatalan, idanish, idutch, ifinnish-large, ifrench, iitalian, > ingerman, inorwegian, iportuguese, ispanish > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: * Packages with elanguages: > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: - Choices: > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: [american (American English), bokmål (Bokmal > Norwegian), british (British English), castellano8 (Spanish 8 bit), catala8 > (Catalan 8 bits), danish (Den Store Danske Ordliste), deutsch (New German > -tex mode-), deutsch (New Ge > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: - Echoices: > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: [american (American English), bokmål (Bokmal > Norwegian), british (British English), castellano8 (Spanish 8 bit), catala8 > (Catalan 8 bits), danish (Den Store Danske Ordliste), deutsch (New German > -tex mode-), deutsch (New Ge > Jan 29 22:07:19 in-target: -------- [dico_get_all_choices] end -------- [...] > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: ** dc_debconf_select: wordlist, critical, > dictionaries-common/default-wordlist > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: new choices:[bokmål (Bokmal Norwegian), nynorsk > (Standard Norwegian)] > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: old choices:[] > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: -------- [dico_get_all_choices] start -------- > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: * Packages with languages: wnorwegian > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: * Packages with elanguages: > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: - Choices: > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: [bokmål (Bokmal Norwegian), nynorsk (Standard > Norwegian)] > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: - Echoices: > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: [bokmål (Bokmal Norwegian), nynorsk (Standard > Norwegian)] > Jan 29 22:07:20 in-target: -------- [dico_get_all_choices] end -------- and now ispell dictionaries and wordlists are configured, > Jan 29 23:28:31 in-target: Setter opp wnorwegian (2.0.10-3.2) ... > [...] > Jan 29 23:29:09 in-target: Setter opp iamerican (3.1.20.0-7) ...
