I was installing pv-grub-menu using preseeding of apt-setup/local0/repository to configure backports and pkgsel/include of pv-grub-menu/wheezy-backports to install[0]. Switching to using a late command to setup backports and install pv-grub-menu seems to work just fine with the version currently in bpo, I suppose because a device.map has been created by the grub by that point. But even so, is there any reason not to upload 1.3 to backports? Ian. [0] which was leading to unrelated strange behaviour by causing iproute, ifupdown and isc-dhcp-client from wheezy to be uninstalled in favour of iproute2 from wheezy-backports.
