My only complaint is the touchpad operation. Windows was previously installed on the laptop and the tapping feature was disabled (by me, I hate it). During the debian setup I kept accidentally tapping when trying to move the cursor over the Next button (cursor moved very fast BTW) and then it would skip a screen since I also clicked the actual left mouse button. So I had to keep going back. I'm not suggesting you change anything because most people probably like tapping. Just giving you my feedback. I used wired networking throughout the install. I wanted to switch to wireless after everything was running, but it doesn't work. It is related to the one error I see while booting, missing b43/ucode5.fw, but once the desktop is running and I try to connect there is no further mention of that error. The average user would probably give up at that point. I tried going to the
Re: diff is now diffutils
Hi Santiago, On Fri, Aug 28, 2009 at 08:17:23PM +0200, Santiago Vila wrote: The diff binary package has been renamed diffutils. The diff package is now dummy and depends on diffutils, so nothing should break because of this change. However, you might want to adjust debootstrap and similar tools so that they don't install obsolete dummy packages. Not related to debian-boot, but I've noticed an implementation issue with this change. The new 'diff' package only Depends: on diffutils, it doesn't Pre-Depend; that means the new package is allowed to be unpacked during upgrade before diffutils is, leaving a window when /usr/bin/diff is missing. I think diff should Pre-Depend on diffutils, as we've done in the past for other Essential package transitions.

I wanted this so that I can build squeeze install CDs with the sid d-i without the bandwidth cost of mirroring all of both distributions. Debmirror currently makes this tricky because it always mirrors the complete cross-product of sections x dists which it is given. I tried using separate invocations of debmirror to mirror different suites but the clean up phase will delete the files downloaded by the other invocations (i.e. mirroring sid will delete all the testing files from the pool and vice versa). I could disable cleanup for the second and subsequent invocations but then my mirror will grow without bound over time... It would be useful if the cleanup phase had a mode where it could consider the complete contents of dists/* rather than just the ones it is currently mirroring. I currently workaround this by mirroring sid and testing into separate trees and using a bunch of symlinks + rsync to a 3rd tree to create a merged mirror. Ian. -- Ian Campbell ...

Bug#545611: live-helper: Live-helper does'nt make squeeze package, in debootstrap part, failed to configure sysvinit package
I believe this problem is due to this bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=545018 It has been fixed in libsepol 2.0.37-2. However, since another release 2.0.38-1 is in sid, no 2.0.37-2 will be in squeeze. The problem now is: # grep-excuses libsepol libsepol (2.0.37-1 to 2.0.38-1) Maintainer: Manoj Srivastava 6 days old (needed 5 days) Overriding age needed from 10 days to 5 by luk out of date on ia64: libsepol1, libsepol1-dev, sepol-utils (from 2.0.37-2) Updating libsepol1 fixes old bugs: #545018 Not considered Any workaround to force debootstrap or cdebootstrap to use libsepol 2.0.38-1 when creating squeeze live using live-helper?

Bug#545715: debian-installer: ask the setup russian console keyboard twice
Package: debian-installer Severity: normal Tags: l10n Hello. History of the question. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=484748 So the end result is that two packages are setting the keyboard layout in the installed system: console-setup and (later, thus overriding the settings) console-cyrillic. It is also ugly to see essentially the same question being asked twice via debconf (first by console-setup, and then by console-cyrillic). I installed the system from debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso today and still to see the console-cyrillic questions. I think console-setup is ready to replace the console-cyrillic. May be do not install this on the default installation? -- Best Regards, Yuri Kozlov -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

This patch should cover merge-lst-to-xml . Hence I'm tagging the bug
+patch, but note that the actual patch should contain both mine and
Ben's slices.
The patch to port to the new etree module should be fine, but I'm unable
to test the actual script as I don't know its logics. If someone can
provide some test data, I'd happily put everything together and test
