 Some developers keep all translations in a single templates file,

That's a bad news.

 1. Am I right that cdebconf handles the templates in debian-installer?
 
 2. Is this possible on all architectures? I mean: do all architectures
use framebuffer?
That also means that bterm will be Essential in debian-installer,
since we won't be able to output any localized text without it.

UTF-8 does not require bterm and framebuffer.
We can still use serial line, etc.

Also, fallback to C locale should be possible.
 
 3. That will make debconf depend on libtext-iconv-perl, though and force
its inclusion into base system. Is that acceptable?

I'd say yes, if it is necessary.



I'd rather have a cdebconf with iconv support and without,
so that we can fight against space constraints, and still have a
full-blown i18n in debconf.

I'd like this kind of text to be committed to doc/ dir of debian-installer

We can fix the text contents later to reflect reality.

I'd  also like some updating of some doc files which seems to have never been 
updated since joeyh first wrote them...

while loading the  file tftpboot.img.


Any  help?

  pxelinux.0

my pxelinux.cfg/C0A80166 is rather simple as I do not yet understand how to
populate it :

So if someone could help me, it would be great !!!

Try upgrading to woody (see

Re: Woody Installation

Don Armstrong wrote:
Hi Don

 I assume of course, that you have setup the bios offset for the drives
 correctly. You almost definetly need a
 
 disk=/dev/sda
 bios=0x80

I already tried this, and many other tips suggested so far. This very
same problem kept occurring on several PCs. Maybe it's my Adaptec
Controller (I took it with me whenever I moved to a new PC.) As soon as
I get a new box (planned for early next year I will delve into the
problem a little deeper.


 in your lilo.conf. [I happen to be booting right now from a machine
 with mixed ide/scsi with the scsi loading before the ide drive...]
 
 Finally, linux (the kernel) doesn't really have anything to do with
 the bootloader, other than the fact that the bootloader loads it, and
 the boot mapper interacts with the disks through it.

What happens:
lilo stops after a certain stage
or
0'1 and 1's get printed on the screen (gazillions of them)
or
lilo tells me it doesn't feel like writing to that disk
or
lilo writes somewhere but doesn't kill any disk.

As it runs happily on your box, it might not be a general problem (as
someone suggested when I first asked for help on Compuserve).

So for the time being I will leave the problem pending as it is, for all
I still have to do is create my own kernel and then I won't have to
change any boot sectors for a long time.

As soon as I know more, I will come back to this.

Thanks a lot

Axel Schlicht

Re: i18n requires setlocale

2002-09-10 Thread Petter Reinholdtsen

[Martin Sjögren]
 I've been thinking the same thing. However, the i18n support is pretty
 hazy as it is:
 
 * main-menu asks debconf for debian-installer/language which afaict
   doesn't exist. IMO it would be better if the thing that asked for
   debian-installer/language first, sets LANG=$language after that,
   so setlocale can be used.

I would like to rename the debconf answer from
debian-installer/language to debian-installer/locale, and store a real
locale name (ll_CC) there.  This way, we can actually use LANG=$locale
after generating the required locale data file.  We can also pass the
content in /target/root/dbootstrap_settings as LANG_INST=$locale to
tell base-config which language to use.

I would also like to add support for the LANGUAGE style variable
listing several languages in priority order to be able to use other
translations if the primary translation is missing.  I want it to be
able to tell the system to use Norwegian Bokmål if present, and if it
isn't use Norwegian Nynorsk, Danish and as a last resort Swedish.
This way non-english speakers in Norway have a good chance of
understanding the installation.

Adding support for priorities in some way would also be cool, though I

Can't be done, since it will be set in a subprocess.. it's kinda

Package: install
Version: woody

After installing Debian Woody 3.0 onto clear machine, /home has 775 
mode. But for ssh method publickey this is wrong by default. I mean 
default setting for ssh 3.4p1-1 from the same distribution. At least 
warn message should be provided ...

As David B. Harris writes:

  While /home is 2775 by default, ssh should have no problems with this.

  If $HOME (like, you're user's home directory) is group-writable,
  you'll have problems, but this is not the default.

I'm closing this bug.

Commited.

 We can fix the text contents later to reflect reality.

It does need fixing. But I need to get some sleep first.

 I'd  also like some updating of some doc files which seems to have never been 
 updated since joeyh first wrote them...

I also plan to do that, but I need to get a better grasp of how that all
works first.

BTW I commited a README file with some general information to the root

Re: Bug#160284: ITP: po-debconf -- Manage translated Debconf templates files with gettext

2002-09-10 Thread Joey Hess

Denis Barbier wrote:
 * Package name: po-debconf
   Version : 0.2.0
   Upstream Author : Denis Barbier [EMAIL PROTECTED],
 Martin Quinson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 * URL : http://savannah.gnu.org/files/index.php?group_id=2756
 * License : GPL
   Description : Manage translated Debconf templates files with gettext
 
  This package is an alternative to debconf-utils and provide tools
  to manage translated Debconf templates files with common gettext
  utilities.
 
  Merged templates files containing all translations are identical to
  the ones generated by debconf-mergetemplate, so there is no
  compatibility issue with Debconf.
 
  This package will first be uploaded into experimental, and will go
  into unstable when its interface is not going to change.  An example
  can be found at
http://people.debian.org/~barbier/debian-installer/l10n/templates/po/

So FWIW, I support this 100%. A word to the wise: Never try to implement
a translation system when you don't fully understand translation and
localization and encodings. :-/ Debconf will eventually phase out the
old system.

So Marcin Owsiany and I have been talking on irc about fixing debconf's
encoding support, and we've arrived at the following idea:

* Add support to debconf for using iconv to convert utf-8 into the
  user's current encoding on the fly when asking questions.
* Flag templates that have all their text in utf-8 by adding a field to
  them such as Encoding: utf-8. If a template lacks that, debconf uses
  its old, slightly broken behavior of doing no charset conversion.
* Since we have a transition period coming up anyway as packages begin to
  move to po-debconf, and since po-debconf's template po files will include
  encoding info, add onto this transition that po-debnconf generated
  template files will be in utf-8.
* Which will mean that po-debconf will either need to fail if all the po
  files are not in the utf-encoding, or, better, if they are not in
  utf-8, convert their info into that encoding when it generates the
  merged templates file (debian/templates itself can be assumed to be ASCII,
  and thus will need no conversion). And po-debconf will add the
  Encoding: utf-8 flag to the merged templates file it generates.

One concern is that I've heard that UTF-8 is really not all there for 
Japanese (Chinese?). I'm told that doing a round-trip conversion from
Shift-JIS to UTF-8 has issues. I don't know if translators can just avoid
those problem encodnings and write ja.po files that are already in UTF-8.

If that doesn't fly for Japanese, we might have to come up with
something more complete, such as Encoding-ll_LL fields in the templates
(Encoding-jp: Shift-JIS). po-debconf would then somehow decide which po
files to re-encode as utf-8 and which to leave alone, and would add the
appropriate Encoding fields.

Note also that the plan for debian-installer is, as I understand it, to
make cdebconf templates always be in UTF-8. If someone over there has
considered the Japanese issues, please lemme know.

Well my dumb terminals don't and I hope d-i can still support installs

   * debconf TITLE commands aren't translated at all.

You translate these in the usual way, by making the program that tells
[c]debconf to set a title use gettext. Dunno how well that works on d-i.

cdebconf templates, as found in the binary udeb package.
Not the ones found in the source package,

What's wrong with using UTF-8 for Japanese?  Having multiple encodings
in a single text file sucks.

I'm aware of the problems described at

  http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/unicode-symbols.html

but they all only seem to be related to the slightly varying vendor
tables, and not a problem when iconv is used consistently.  What other
problems are there that are severe enough to need this?

 Can't be done, since it will be set in a subprocess.. it's kinda
 hackish, but AFAICT there is no other way.  You can't pass environment
 vars to parents.

You can, but the parent has to listen. Though I don't know if it's
possible in this very case.

 set-var 
#!/bin/sh
VAR=`frobnicate --all`
echo VAR=$VAR

then do:

OUT=`set-var`
eval $OUT
