Blink. Could you attach full installation logs, please? I fixed this bug in a version of grub-install uploaded on 12 June 2009; I find it amazing that it would still be persisting in a current build!

Done, and I also uploaded the necessary parted patch today.

OTOH, maybe libnss-myshostname does not have to be priority standard. Instead, /etc/hosts could be shipped without the local hostname and packages that are known to require the hostname to be resolvable can just depend on it. Advantage is that only installations that really require the feature need to install the package. Disadvantage is that the admin can not easily remove it and do the /etc/hosts setting manually.

I also noticed that last September aspell-fi was added to Finnish task. Aspell is not flexible enough to be useful for Finnish spell-checking in a practical sense, so it should be removed.
